Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
Ormont, a leader of psychotherapy groups for over 40 years, discusses the dynamics of group therapy. Citing examples from groups he has guided, Ormont, who is also the author of several articles and one book on group therapy (with Herbert S. Strean, The Practice of Conjoint Therapy , Human Sciences Pr., 1977), explains how therapists can establish and manage groups while overcoming the problems that often manifest themselves during group reactions. The information contained here is highly specialized and while it might benefit those considering group therapy, it is better suited for therapists working with groups. Purchase for exhaustive psychology or medical collections.

Explains Group Therapy,

This review is from: The Group Therapy Experience: From Theory To Practice (Hardcover)
This book was very enlightening for me. Already in group therapy but confused by a lot of what goes on, after I read this book, I finally made progress. I was much less threatened and could let go more, as I now knew what I was supposed to do. It explains what the therapist is doing and his or her goals and techniques. After I read it, in group, I saw my therapist doing the bridging technique and pointing out group resistances, and recognizing that added to the fun of my therapy. The Group Therapy Experience is easy to understand and doesn't hold anything back. It tells how it works and the wonderful things that it does for people. This book is well worth the price.
