The effectiveness of group counselling, as a treatment modality,
has been well established. And while additional theoretical work
will always be needed, perhaps the greater challenge for
contemporary group practitioners lies in crafting theoretically
sound applications of group theory so that group methods can be
used more effectively to benefit clients struggling with various
psychological and developmental problems. This book responds to
this need by offering fourteen chapters of creative, useful
examples of how group methods can be successfully applied to a wide
range of problems and populations. Each chapter, written by
innovators from the fields of counselling, social work, psychology
and psychiatry, focuses on specific mental health problems of
issues that will interest a wide population. A careful analysis of
each psychological or development problem greets the reader,
followed by a discussion of the theoretical basis for the
interventions. Each chapter utilises practical recommendations,
outlines of procedures, and liberal use of case examples to
illuminate important process points. Each broad category, Adults;
Children and Adolescents; and Training and Theory; includes
interesting chapter topics such as Group counselling with late
deafened adults, Marital restoration groups, Therapist's uses of
self in group psychotherapy, and Group play therapy with abused
children. The elegant combination of theory and practice offers the
reader a range of easily implemented methods and techniques applied
to each specified problem. Modern Applications to Group Work is a
valuable companion text for any group-oriented course.
Undergraduate and graduate courses in group can use the text to
illustrate the application of general group principles to specific
psychological concerns. Modern Applications to Group Work may he
used as the primary text for advanced courses in group counselling,
psychology and social work programs. Practitioners will he
attracted to the book due to die comprehensive scope and the strong
theoretical basis of each chapter that is followed by pragmatic
treatment strategies.
