ReviewsAttuning to the sociocultural perspective was never a choice but our culture of dominance invisiblizes it, creating colonizing conditions for therapeutic practice. But no more! McDowell, Knudson-Martin, and Bermudez's socioculturally attuned framework offer theoretically dynamic, contextually sensitive, and relationally ethical ways to unpack the invisible, yet highly felt, role power plays to create third-order change. They show us how this change is an imperative, not a choice, to create just relationships. One of the rich features in this edition are diverse practitioner reflections, across contexts, which afford the reader to engage one's unique intersectional positionalities in practice. This book needs to be required reading for all practitioners. Saliha Bava, PhD, Associate Professor, MFT Program, Mercy College; Co-founder & Executive Council Member, International Certificate in Collaborative-Dialogic Practices Network Systemic, third-order thinking requires profound and authentic engagement making transformative change at many contextual levels impossible without socioculturally attuned praxis in family therapy. This compelling book challenges family therapists to stay true to their systemic training and consider all the intersections of our relational contexts. It uses a social justice and inclusion lens and has uniquely included the voices of many engaged in transformative third-order thinking and change. It is a must-read for anyone claiming to be a family therapist. Manijeh Daneshpour, Distinguished Professor of Family Therapy, Alliant International University, California

SynopsisSocioculturally Attuned Family Therapy, 2nd edition, is a fully updated and essential textbook that addresses the need for marriage and family therapists to provide socially responsible couple, marriage, and family therapy, infusing diversity, equity, and inclusion throughout theory and clinical practice. Written accessibly by leaders in the field, this new edition explores why sociocultural attunement and equity matter and provides students and clinicians with integrative, equity-based family therapy guidelines that clinicians can apply to their practice. The authors integrate principles of societal context, power, and equity into the core concepts of ten major family therapy models, such as structural family therapy, narrative family therapy, and Bowen family systems, with this new edition including a new chapter on socio-emotional relational therapy in practice. Paying close attention to the how to's of changes processes, updates include the use of more diverse voices that describe the creative application of this framework, the use of reflective questions that can be used in class, and revisions to show how the authors have moved their thinking forward, such as third-order thinking vs change, ethics as infused in everyday practice from a third-order perspective, and the limits and applicability of SCARFT as a transtheoretical, transnational approach. Fitting COAMFT, COACRE, and CSWE requirements for social and cultural diversity, this new edition is revised to include current cultural and societal changes, such as the BLM movement.
