Description

This volume concentrates on teaching group dynamics with an experiential, process focus.

The procedure for instruction seeks to provide an integration of cognitive and affective components in learning how to tune into, and effectively use, group dynamics.

Instructors and supervisors are provided with specific techniques for helping students understand manifestations of resistance, countertransference issues, assuming a process orientation, and dealing with both individual and group-as-a-whole concerns.

Immensely practical and classroom tested. Chapter 1 provides an overview and a discussion of ethical principles in group work.

Chapter 2 focuses on how to structure the class, including a systematic method for monitoring group sessions, providing feedback to students, and addressing specific ethical concerns such as confidentiality and involuntary group membership.

Chapter 6 describes the link between what is taking place in the present-centered group session and the past.
