Title and description from publisher metadata.

"In this training video, couples therapist Dr. Daniel Wiener demonstrates how to energize and enhance your couples work by incorporating drama therapy techniques called Rehearsals for Growth. By watching this video, you will understand the components of Rehearsals for Growth and how to apply these improvisational techniques to assessment and therapy with couples; learn how to facilitate discussions that will enrich each couple's understanding of their relational tendencies and enable them to try out new ways of being; and find more ease in transitioning between action methods and talk therapy. Over the course of three sessions based on an actual case with a married couple, Wiener demonstrates a series of original and effective exercises, interspersed with observations of the couple's dynamics and rationale for his therapeutic choices. Intended for students and practitioners in clinical psychology, couples counseling, and social work."
