While written with the counselor in mind, GROUP COUNSELING: STRATEGIES AND SKILLS, Sixth Edition, also provides an outstanding discussion of group dynamics for professionals in group leadership positions. The authors discuss the many facets of group counseling and provide examples that show how each skill can be applied in a wide range of group settings to produce efficient working groups.

They never replied and it still too 2 weeks for me to recieve my book. When I received my book there was not receipt or return address. Rating: - Counseling groups?
