Customer Reviews

still waiting...1
It's been a month... where is my book? I don't know, I haven't gotten it yet. I've gotten the other book I bought in the same order, a used book. I have yet to see the new book. This is very disappointing. It's hard to wait for a book and get further and further behind in my studies. I should have gone to a different site.

Masters Student4
This was a very helpful manual for Group Therapy. It was a little lengthy in spots, but I would recommend it for anyone interested in improving their skills as a group counselor.

Theory and Practice of Group Psychotherapy5
Yalom did a superb job in taking his readers through the process- the world of group psychotherapy. I especially appreciate reading about the cases to see how the theories actually came together. I have learned so much from a pro!
