Brian CadeAuthor of A Brief Guide to Family TherapyAt last! A reliable and comprehensive work to which I can refer the increasing number of professionals, from a wide variety of practice settings, who are asking me, "Can these techniques be adapted for groups?" It is clear, concise, practical and full of adaptable examples. I...recommend it., Terry HargraveAuthor of Families and ForgivenessNo one has applied solution focused therapy to more diverse settings in such an effective way as Linda Metcalf. This book opens a whole new door to group therapy., Michael DurrantAuthor of Creative Strategies for School Problems: Solutions for Psychologists and TeachersLinda Metcalf's book is the logical next step in the solution focused brief therapy literature and, as such, is timely and most welcome....She shows how a therapeutic approach that sets out to be collaboration between clients and therapist is ideally suited to situations where clients in a group can develop therapeutic collaboration as well., Bill O'HanlonAuthor of Even from a Broken Web and Brief Couples Therapy Homework PlannerFinally, a book on solution-based and collaborative group therapy. The field has been waiting for this book for a long time, and Linda Metcalf has done it well. She includes solid theoretical underpinnings, as well as practical methods of doing group work in a variety of academic and clinical settings. She tells us how to do group therapy with anxiety, depression, anger, adolescents, parents, relationships, and family-of-origin issues.

Synopsis
Argues that the nature of group therapy lends itself to time-limited treatment and presents the basics of solution focused brief therapy for practitioners and patients., In our managed care era, group therapy, long the domain of traditional psychodynamically oriented therapists, has emerged as the best option for millions of Americans. However, the process can be frustratingly slow, and studies show that patients actually feel worse after months of group treatment than when they began. Can and should "the group" speed a person's progress? Now, in this "must have" book, marriage and family therapist Linda Metcalf persuasively argues that the collaborative nature of group therapy actually lends itself to time-limited treatment. She combines the best elements of group work and the popular solution focused brief therapy approach to create new opportunities for practitioners and patients alike.Among the topics covered in this valuable guide are: how to learn the model how to design a group and recruit members how to identify exceptions to a group member's self-destructive behaviors and thoughts how to help members focus on their successes rather than their failures how to keep the group solution focused when therapists or members fall back into old patterns This unique resource also includes case examples and session transcripts to follow, together with reproducible forms that can be used as they are or tailored to a therapist's needs.Solution Focused Group Therapyis an up-to-the-minute, highly accessible resource for therapists of any orientation. Managed care companies in particular will welcome this model, which deals so effectively and economically with today's biggest problems, including eating disorders, chemical dependencies, grief, depression, anxiety, and sexual abuse.

- v***v (2060)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseAlthough this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.
- 2***j (113)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseI've ordered several items from this vendor now and they've always been what they were advertised as. This was no exception. Both discs were in great shape as well as their jewel cases. Delivery is good, packaging is simple but effective for what you're paying and I haven't had any get damaged. Will keep buying from this vendor because of the results so far and good prices, too.
