"[A] masterful guide that teaches us to gain the most from each group setting. Whether we are in our private practice or involved in a committee, this work gives us an excellent format to follow." - William S. Bezmen, PhD, RN, CS, Director, Pathways to Health, Holistic Treatment and Education Center
Group Leadership Skills provides a solid foundation for using group concepts,
theory, and research with a wide variety of groups and group settings. With

skills, including differentiating content from process, working with tension

to improve the effectiveness of group leaders, such as helping groups solve

collection of groups. The strategies and techniques can be used with students,
families, staff, codependency groups, depression groups, rape and sexual abuse
groups, domestic violence groups, and many more.
