This book focuses on societal changes that have had significant impact on how couples and families function and the complicated issues they face in today's world. Addressing emergent areas that are not well covered elsewhere, this book explores emerging relationship trends and shifting values, dynamics, and expectations that influence and characterized couples and families today.  Covering such areas as diverse family types (e.g., LGBTQ families, four and five generation families, families with an international adoptee, postpartum disorders), impact of societal dynamics on couples and families (e.g., relocation and finances, family businesses, political conflicts), new practice trends (e.g., use of psychedelics in couples therapy, incorporation of neuropsychological evaluations for neurosurgery decision-making, innovative primary care practice models) and more, this volume brings the practice of working with couples and families completely up to date. Each chapter is written by an expert(s) in a particular area and includes helpful advice for couple family psychology/therapy practitioners and students. Researchers will benefit from exposure to issues that merit further serious study.
