I am using this book in a graduate level group counseling class. I have found it to be very useful. It gives you an excellant overview of the various theories and how they can be utilized within group counseling. The Corey's have also produced a video tape of a group counseling session that also provides so valuable information.

5.0 out of 5 stars my group counseling class, June 17, 2000

This review is from: Theory and Practice of Group Counseling (Non Info Trac Version) (Hardcover)

As a start in my class of group counseling the teacher gives us a series of information necessary to fulfill this kind of counselig. She talks us of the characteristics, attitudes, and skills that a good counselor should have. Then she applies all of them to what a good leader in group counseling should be. She uses of reference a book named Theory and practice of group counselig 4th edition. I think if she has this kind of good information to give to us I should have in my personnal library to use it of reference to be a good and sharp counselor. I think I can use this book to help my clients and to keep myself with the best information.

i have ordered this book from two different suppliers through amazon and i cannot get it. now i have missed an exam waiting on books even when i contact the sender they claim the book was sent and all amazon wants to do is give your money back i need the book thats it.i feel by allowing other places to co-op with the amazon name you business really seems to be operating more like a large yard sale.
