This book examines marriage and family therapy as a moral paradigm. The author begins with an account of the wider social contexts in which therapy must workwithin a social structure that is filled with prejudice and injustice. Lageman demonstrates that marriage and family therapists have responsibilities not only to their clients, but also to their society. This book synthesizes moral philosophy with therapeutic approaches, outlining the role of codes and ethics in therapy and assessing their value and limitations. Lageman consults dutybased ethics, beginning with Kant and developed by W.D. Ross, in order to clarify the duties of the therapist. He continues with a discussion of the 'rights' of the clients and the necessity of therapists' respect for them. He draws upon developmental moral theory (Kohlberg and Gilligan) and integrates it into the therapeutic process, helping to delineate the mandatory virtues of a marriage and family therapist.Contents: Preface; The Wider Contexts: Social Structure and Professional Ideologies; Ethical Issues Specific to Marriage and Family Therapy; Duties of Marriage and Family Therapists; Client Rights; Developmental Moral Theory; CharacterVirtue Based Ethics; Conclusion; Bibliography; Index.
