A Stranger in the Family: Culture, Families and Therapy (Norton Professional Books) Book

"Meeting strangers" is a metaphor for the increasingly common experience of working with diversity in family therapy. This book offers a model of cultural family therapy for working with families across cultures, particularly immigrants, refugees, and minorities in mainstream society. The author draws together several emerging trends in therapy and the human sciences: narrative approaches, transcultural psychiatry, studies of autobiographical memory and the distributed and saturated self, translation theory and sociolinguistics. He offers an understanding of the "situated nature" of human problems and tools for translating the family's culture and idioms into a common language in a culturally responsive and collaborative way.Read More
