Description
|
Essentials of Group Therapy is an ideal resource for graduate students in psychology, counseling, social work, marriage and family therapy, or psychiatric nursing. The authors provide step-by-step guidelines for doing group therapy, including how to build a group; the developmental stages of a group; how to lead a group; and ethical, legal, and administrative issues for managing therapy groups. Major theoretical models and special types of groups (e.g., short-term and self-help groups), as well as issues of diversity, are also explained. Using the student-friendly Essentials format, this handy guide also features a number of case examples scattered throughout the book to illustrate the concepts being taught.
