In this book, Dr. Gold emphasizes the principles and practices of narrative therapy as a means to address key concerns within the family system, reauthor dominant social myths surrounding stepfamily life, and create realistic treatment plans that are inclusive of all members of the family. Detailing the inherent strengths and challenges of the stepfamily experience, he provides an in-depth examination of the roles of each member in a blended family, including stepfathers and stepmothers, ex-spouses, grandparents, and children. This book is an excellent guide to thoughtful, practical, and empirically validated interventions for helping stepfamilies thrive.

"The blending of families is often a difficult task for family members and for the counselors who work with them. Stepping In, Stepping Out: Creating Stepfamily Rhythm is a valuable resource to help counselors address the unique potentialities and problems involved in the development of well-functioning stepfamilies where family members and extended family members step with rather than step on one another." --Richard E. Watts, PhD
