Group Techniques

by Gerald Corey

This text examines in depth the roles that techniques play in group counselling and provides direction for counsellors and future counsellors on how to develop and use techniques suitable for their own situations. Many specific examples of techniques are discussed, such as dealing with involuntary groups, creating trust and working with conflict. Examples give readers an idea of how they can create, implement and evaluate their own techniques. End-of-chapter questions and experimental activities are provided, "suggested readings" have been completely revised and updated, and a further resources section has been added. This book should be of interest to degree and diploma students taking courses in group counselling in departments of psychology and social work.

[Brent Dore · Rating 2 out of 5]

It's a helpful book on techniques and tools for faciliating groups but it is DRY. Don't try and read it at night because it comes with a gaurantee to put you to sleep. But it is a good tool for individuals who lead groups of any kind.

A well written guide to group work.

Really useful book. If it were not a textbook, it would be more affordable and I would purchase my own copy. $50 for a used copy of a book only 1/4 inch thick?!
