Bought this for a course in my MSW program. I enjoyed the class and we really used the book from front to back. This book has a lot of usuful information if you are looking to start running groups or working with clients in your practicum. I plan on keeping this text and not selling it back because of all the information that you can gain from this book. Im glad that I took the course because of this book!.

I've read a couple of Group counseling textbooks and this is my favorite. I was upset with the price but Corey's writing is excellent, his in depth explanation of the different modalities was perfect and I especially appreciated the examples included. This will stay on my reference bookshelf for future use.

4.0 out of 5 stars Corey, Group Therapy
Reviewed in the United States on 9 July 2013
Verified Purchase
This book is a little expensive for what you get out of it. The beginning is about ethics and general group therapy terms. In later chapters the authors summarize theoretical models and apply them to group therapy. Pro: it's a great book for future reference; it gives you overarching ideas; and it's not too boring. Con: it's expensive; and a little too basic for a graduate level student.
