Well-Being Writ Large : The Essential Work of Virginia Satir

Virginia Satir, known by many as the Mother of Family Therapy, worked during her lifetime to guide individuals toward the goal of "becoming more fully human." Virginia worked with individuals and families, believing that her principles for interpersonal peace could be scaled to serve the "world family." Her clinical observations of families from around the world led to far-reaching, universal philosophies to spread peace and understanding. WELL-BEING WRIT LARGE is both testament and tribute to Virginia's legacy and a portal into her brilliant mind. Barbara Jo Brothers, author, qualified clinical social worker and scholar of Satir and her methods, draws extensively on public articles and books, as well as never-before-published personal notes, interviews and letters, to provide insight into this innovator's remarkable life and career.
