The materials can be used in continuing professional education programs and for self-study by general medical practitioners, pediatricians, psychiatrists, psychologists, teachers, and other specialists whose focus is on families in difficult life situations.
The book reflects the ideas of a systematic approach and the author’s experience in the field of medical and psychological care, and contains a detailed description of the process of interaction between a specialist and a family. Cases from practice illustrate theoretical principles.

The textbook invites students, residents, graduate students, beginners and experienced professionals to think about attitudes to stigma, respect for the individual and family, the professional community and the law.
A team from the Institute of Integrative Family Therapy made a great contribution to the appearance of the book.
