Description
This is a well-structured book... aims to give ""step-by-step instructions for leading a group session that allows the facilitators to lead a group with little preparation""... I will be using the book in my practice, both to draw on within my groupwork with children impacted by substance misuse, but also within other client groups and even with individual clients.... I would recommend the book to practitioners in both their group and individual work. it offers evidence-based information about the key issues for this client group and provides resources that can be used directly or adapted to stimulate discussion in sessions.
