Small Groups in Counseling and Therapy

Intended to be a practical textbook for group dynamics courses, this book offers the appropriate conceptual knowledge and practical skills needed for effective small group leadership. It considers the theories of leadership and group process, and shows their practical applications. In this edition, more attention is given to cognitive therapies such as rational emotive therapy, and there is also a chapter on self-help groups. In addition, much of the material has been reorganized to reflect more closely the relationships in small group-therapy settings.
