Diagnosis in couple psychotherapy. Volume 1: Diagnosis of couples in different approaches is an extraordinary compendium of knowledge that allows you to see the differences in the way problems are understood and interpreted, with which people experiencing difficulties in their relationships report. The authors, working in various theoretical approaches, present the specifics of the psychotherapist's diagnostic work from a systemic, psychoanalytic, narrative attachment therapy, emotion-focused and cognitive-behavioral perspective.

Developing a diagnosis is a key stage in the entire psychotherapeutic process. Formulating a diagnosis, discussing it and developing goals for therapeutic work is essential for both therapists and patients. Separating the diagnostic consultation stage from therapy sessions affects the level of patient engagement, their motivation, empowers them and gives a better understanding of what psychotherapy is.

This handbook is a step towards a stronger isolation of the diagnosis stage in daily practice. In this way, the authors try to find an answer to the question of how to combine academic and practical knowledge. This book is an invaluable source of knowledge for all couple therapists, psychology students and people interested in the subject of interpersonal relationships.
