Multi-Dimensional Therapy with Families, Children and Adults

In this fascinating book, Dr. Ariel provides a superb framework for
learning to be an integrative therapist. The book brings an energetic
and unique perspective; giving access to inner workings of language in
therapy, thus providing critical ground for learning from clinical
experience. Dr. Ariel’s background in linguistics gives him ease in
dealing with and integrating concepts and findings from various fields.
He creates a language, simultaneously alive and rigorous, for
acknowledging and working creatively with the unending complexity of
human experience.

This outstanding book provides a comprehensive overview of The Diamond Model, developed by the author. It sheds a new light on the ways systemic therapists can proceed through all the stages of therapy, applying an integration of various effective techniques. The author has demonstrated his capacity to clarify his multidimensional and culturally informed Diamond Model in a way that is easy to understand. Recently, Dr. Ariel trained a first generation of family therapists to apply The Diamond Model here in Kosovo. The trainees have found this model very useful as a theory-into-practice guide for working with complex cases.
