In a climate of managed cost concerns, Scenario Role Play: The
Blees Method provides the therapist with a powerful and efficient
therapeutic tool for facilitating improved functioning with several
clients at a time. Using "Scenarios" which are drawn from--and
similar to--the kind of life experiences that clients face, this
unique form of role play employs the group as a miniature society
while the clients "play" themselves. This allows the group
therapist to work with heterogeneous groups. It enables the clients
to witness and experience alternatives to their maladaptive
responses, helping them to change their thinking, feeling, and
behavior patterns without the risks of loss of a job, or a
marriage, etc. The norms of this therapeutic approach permit
clients to "work" at the edge of their comfort level. After
presenting the theory undergirding this group therapy, the book
furnishes a step-by-step orientation to the process. Chapters show
the therapist ways to establish a group, choose Scenarios and Role
Characters, and set up a Scenario. Guidelines for observing the
action, ending the "playing," and processing the event are
provided. An appendix of 24 Scenarios furnishes tools for immediate
use in the therapist's own practice. While Scenario Role Play has
been relatively unknown, the therapist does not need to learn new
jargon or change the methods of assessing or understanding clients
in order to use this procedure, and can easily add his or her own
interventions to the process. Since the method simultaneously
incorporates intellectual, affective, and behavioral components,
the client is moving toward more maturity wholistically. This book
is a valuable resource for professionals who wish to work with
groups in either in- or out-patient settings, including schools,
half-way houses, etc.; as well as for professors and students in
the helping professions.
