This casebook can be used to accompany any family therapy text, including Nichols/Schwartz's Family Therapy: Concepts and Methods, 5/e. This book is the narrative “diary” of a family therapist, Mike Nichols, as he develops a relationship and enters into the process of family therapy with one family, the Salazars. It provides an in-depth personal account of the process of therapy from the counselor's perspective, as well as a rich, detailed study of a family from courtship through the departure of the children from the home. Each major stage of the family life cycle is presented in a separate chapter.
Students of family therapy can use this book in conjunction with their textbooks, to provide a more in-depth and personal view of how to conduct themselves as therapists. The book includes discussions of the effects of gender, ethnicity, and sexual orientation on individuals and families. It also provides information about the dynamics of relationships that could be applied by the reader to his or her own life, whether that person is a professional therapist, a student, or a member of the general public.

Review
“Strengths include presentation of therapy scenarios; focus on one family going through the therapy to demonstrate the stages of therapy and the stages of family life; real life experiences of the Salazar family members (students get inducted into this and usually ‘read ahead’ of what is assigned, something not normally done!).”
William Quinn, Clemson University
“The Inside Family Therapy book is perfect. What is so very impressive about the content and the writing style is how Mike Nichols weaves and threads ways of thinking as he sits with this family, along with specific skills he utilizes in his work with them. It allows students to see and experience what is going on within Nichols and how that is played out in what he says and does with the family. This is not an easy thing to do with the written word (except in novels) but he does it so very well. It also leads to much greater self awareness on the part of the students.
Robert Jackson, University of Iowa
