"Group Techniques provides a compass and the equipment, for the beginning and advanced group facilitator, as they navigate through their group counseling journey."

"I have recommended this book to colleagues for years. I think it is a very strong, hands-on, practical approach to using techniques. Instead of just talking about techniques, the book shows practitioners how to do them. There are so many examples, but the focus remains on not using this as a cookbook. I really enjoy the book, and so do my students."
