Rich traditions of group therapy permeate the substance misusefield - from residential and day-centre group programmes and thefellowship group tradition to the panoply of support/education andrelapse prevention groups offered by out-patient services. Thereare specialist groups - e.g. art therapy and psychodrama- andgroups for special population- e.g. relatives, prisoners and adultchildren of alcoholics.
This important collection is written by many well-known experts,several renowned on the international stage, with perspectives fromthe UK, USA and Scandinavia. They share their extensive experiencesin the conceptualisation, setting up and running of therapy groups.Ultimately, all are concerned in their groups to increase empathiccontact and thereby to facilitate opportunities for addicts toembark upon change. With no equivalent UK book of its kind, thereader has a rare opportunity to consider this subject inimpressive scope, diversity and depth.
