Family-Based Treatment of Struggling Young Adults is exactly the book I've been looking for! Written with great life and humanity, Brad Sachs has crafted a beautiful, practical book. I found it to be highly accessible, immensely helpful, and incredibly well-written. Sachs takes us inside therapy sessions and often gives us the words to say to our clients and their families. More importantly, he gives us a framework to skillfully work with these challenging clients. Any clinician who works with struggling young adults and their families needs to get this terrific book. I devoured it! -Dave Verhaagen, PhD, ABPP, CEO of Southeast Psych and author of Therapy With Young Men and Parenting the Millennial Generation. In this must-read book, Brad Sachs brings therapeutic wisdom to the new realities of extended adolescence with insight, empathy, and incisive understanding of family needs and psychotherapy practice. -Jerrold Lee Shapiro, PhD, professor of counseling psychology at Santa Clara University and author of Finding Meaning, Facing Fears in the Autumn of Your Years (45-65) Brad Sachs has written a timely and invaluable book for practitioners assisting the growing tide of young adults who are struggling in their transition to independent living. His deft handling of sessions in which parents and their grown children, either separately or together, learn to navigate the developmental challenges of individuation and autonomy are lessons in the delicate art of balancing respect, compassion and accountability in clinical work. It is an excellent book. -Janet Sasson Edgette, PsyD, psychologist and author of The Last Boys Picked: Helping Boys Who Don't Play Sports Survive Bullying and Boyhood
