I can't wait to use this excellent book in my family course."

"Dr. Bitter's presentation of each theory is clear, compelling, useful, and driven by a focus on application, wellness, and resiliency. He prompts personal reflection and models transparency about his own formative experiences, and his writing is warm and filled with hope for counselors who seek to create lasting and loving change for couples and families."
