This book gives readers a rich and detailed understanding of what it is like to work with a diverse range of couple presentations from a CBT perspective.

The book starts by outlining the principle conceptual insights and therapeutic strategies of two different two approaches to CBT Couple Therapy, Contextually Enhanced Cognitive Behavioural Couple Therapy and Integrative Behavioural Couple Therapy. In part two, authors working in a wide range of clinical settings describe how they have drawn upon and applied CBT Couple therapy across a variety of issues including: couple distress, sexual issues, infidelity, inter-partner violence, transition to parenthood, separation issues, personality disorders, and more. Each chapter provides discussions of strategies for assessment and formulation and includes examples of dialogue from fictionalised case studies as well as therapist tips.

Case Studies in Cognitive Behavioural Couple Therapy will be required reading for both beginning and experienced couple therapists who wish to draw upon the wide range of evidence-based strategies available in Cognitive Behavioural Couple therapy.
