Research often focuses on the characteristics of stepfamilies and their differences with first-union families; however, few studies take\udinto account the therapist’s perspective with regards to the treatment of such families. Also, cross-cultural research on the topic is limited.\udTo fill these gaps, a content analysis of responses from 125 Italian and 45 American therapists regarding their representations of stepfamilies\udand stepfamily therapy was undertaken. Results show that American therapists emphasized specific stepfamily characteristics (e.g., the\udlack of a shared family history, the occurrence of conflict between former spouses, the presence of unrealistic expectations towards treatment)\udto a greater extent if compared to Italian therapists. By contrast, besides being more general in their definition of stepfamilies, Italian therapists\udfocused more on themselves, their theoretical models, and their professional and personal skills. The study provides insights on both\udthe differences in the clinical cultures of the two countries and implications for stepfamily therapy and training
