Abstract
Challenges related to managing multiple life roles, particularly work and family roles, often bring individuals or couples to psychotherapy. While a vast empirical literature exists on issues in managing work and family roles, there is little integration of this research into family therapy practice. The purpose of this article is to offer an initial attempt at such integration by considering the implication of work-family research for clinical interventions. The first section of this article identifies three themes from research on work-family relationships that seem to offer good possibilities for the development of therapeutic interventions. The second section offers suggestions about ways that these themes might fruitfully be used in the therapy room.
