Postgraduate 2-year training program — The Family Institute at Northwestern University
Dr. Lebow is Clinical Professor of Psychology at Northwestern University as well as Senior Scholar and Senior Therapist at The Family Institute at Northwestern University. He is editor-in-chief of the journal Family Process and the Encyclopedia of Couple and Family Therapy (with Chambers and Breunlin 2018). He maintains an active psychotherapy practice, treating individuals, couples, and families. Dr. Lebow made seminal contributions to the field, particularly in the areas of psychotherapy integration, the common factors, and bridging research and practice. He may be best known, however, as a preeminent articulator of the fields of couple and family therapy on the same level of sophistication as Lynn Hoffman.
Dr. Lebow is the editor of the journal Family Process, the editor of the Encyclopedia of Couple and Family Therapy and the author or editor of 13 professional books. He is also the former president of the Academy of Couple and Family Psychology and former board member of three entities — the American Family Therapy Academy, the American Board of Family Psychology and the Illinois Marriage and Family Therapist Association.
