Product description

Review

This book is a well presented, comprehensive textbook on group counseling practices, ethics, techniques, and theoretical application. This is an effective group counseling textbook that breaks down group counseling from the crucial components of leadership, ethics, stages, skills, and techniques and then enhances it with application to different populations and integration of group counseling theories. This is an excellent textbook that provides both a beginning and advanced understanding of the theories and practices of group counseling. It includes a thorough, yet concise review of the basic group process and practice. It provides a clear understanding of the theoretical underpinnings of key assumptions and techniques of each theory and illustrates their application to groups in action. I recommend this book to all students and professionals with the goal of enhancing their theoretical application to their practice of therapeutic groups. This is the best book on the market for use in teaching a Group Counseling Class. It is very readable and my students enjoy it very much. I find the integrative emphasis to be valuable for future counselors. The sections on school counseling, multicultural issues, and the balance between theory and practice make this a thorough, well-rounded textbook.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful book on the fundamentals of group work

This book is very well put together. It is a good read and there is so much valuable information within it. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to explore group work. I found that there were some areas that I had interest in that were brushed over in many other books.

Great for graduate students and practitioners that are newer to the profession.

Exactly what I needed for my Group Counseling course! After my school bookstore carried the wrong edition and had trouble bringing the newest edition to shelves, I trusted Amazon to have what I needed. My classes started and on a Tuesday and my order was received Thursday. I enjoy Corey very much and recommend this book to others taking a similar advance course.
