Industry Reviews
"Chen and Rybak's updated edition provides a valuable resource for students struggling to master the complexities of group work. The text's examples, scenarios, and prompts for reflection will provide much-needed opportunities for applying group work concepts to practice, and encourage readers to engage in life-long professional development as group practitioners."
-- Tracy A. Marschall"The first edition of Chen and Rybak was invaluable for my master's level counseling students, and given the great attention that the authors have paid to suggestions for revisions, I am confident that students and faculty of group counseling will find the second edition even more valuable in moving students comfortably into working with groups."
-- Charles Timothy Dickey"The authors of this textbook provide both a comprehensive and practical understanding of the group counseling process for both entry level group leaders and seasoned group leaders. Special attention is used to describe the various types of challenges one face with working with individuals in a group setting. Most impressively, the authors provide an opportunity for entry level counselors to consider their role as the group leader and assessment of personal and professional growth."
-- Tracey M. Dunca * New Jersey City University *"This text revision expands on previous available materials, is accessible to undergraduate and graduate students, and has practical examples to illuminate the concepts."
-- Jack Flight"In Group Leadership Skills, Chen and Rybak provide a thoughtful, nuanced, and honest look into the interpersonal relationship world of group counseling and therapy. They weave the skills new group leaders need in order to be successful throughout very real situations that occur in group work. Group work teachers who create, or want to create, inter- and intrapersonal learning within their classrooms and in their students will find this book a delight. The writing style and the content foster the responsibility of the group leader to be the healthy professional there to guide members to healthy change. This book will challenge students not only to work on their skills as leaders and their understanding of group work, but also on their personal growth and 'self as instrument.'"
-- Karin Lindstrom Bremer"A deep dive into facilitating group process that helps guide leaders into how to create meaningful change through group interaction."
-- Susan Larimer"Excellent information and application for upper-level group courses."
