Reviews
"A good resource book for those running groups; it is easy to use, is excellently presented and contains a wealth of ideas for a whole range of situations and client groups." British Journal of Therapy and Rehabilitation "It is good to find a book which is so practical and "hands on" from beginning to end. It is worth a read." - Deirdre Kokich, NZROT "It is a well-presented and user-friendly book which is likely to become well thumbed as practioners design and plan sessions". - Sheena E E Blair, Course Leader/Senior Lecturer, Queen Mary College, Edinburgh, BJOT "...this is a useful resource to the experienced group facilitator." - Karen Stainsby, Gestalt Counsellor, Counselling News "If you've ever found yourself wracking your brains to recall what activities you've used with previous groups, this may be the time-saving planning device you've been looking for." - Deborah Harding, Wolfson Medical Rehabilitation Centre and Atkinson Morley's Hospital, RCSLT Bulletin "...purposely accessible to those without in-depth psychiatric knowledge." - Human Communication
