"Group psychotherapy can be daunting, especially for students and others who have not led groups before. Choosing a model of therapy can be especially tricky. The best therapy, as Virginia Brabender and April Fallon explain in this book, is one that meshes well with the needs of the patient population, the therapist, and the environment in which treatment is taking place. They also emphasize the key role of process, the interactions between and among group members and the therapist, in the mechanics of group psychotherapy. For each approach, interpersonal, psychodynamic, cognitive behavior, acceptance and commitment, problem solving, and behavioral therapies, the auhtors examine theoretical underpinnings, characteristic interventions, relevant research, strengths and weaknesses across different clinical contexts, and the unique demands of the therapy setting. Using vivid clinical vignettes, Brabender and Fallon demonstrate how therapists can choose, adapt, and implement the model most suited for their group."--Page 4 de la couverture.

The Ethics of Group Psychotherapy provides group psychotherapists with the ethical and legal foundation needed to engage in effective decision-making in their everyday group practices. This text provides readers with a framework for understanding ethical dilemmas through a review of major models of ethical thinking, including principlism, feminism and the ethics of care, and virtue ethics. The authors use this foundation to explore those problems emerging most routinely in group practice, among which are safeguarding members’ personal information, protecting members’ autonomy, and helping members to process differences—particularly those related to privilege and oppression—in a way that furthers interpersonal relations and social justice. Throughout the text, practical tools such as using assessments to aid in member selection and tracking progress and outcome through measurement-based care are offered that bolster the group psychotherapist’s effectiveness in ethical decision-making. Featuring questions for discussion and items to assess the reader’s master of the material, this text will be a valuable tool in classroom and small-group learning.

Assists clinicians in managing their time to the greatest advantage and providing professional treatment to all patients simultaneously As inpatient psychiatric facilities face bed shortages and increasingly limited insurance coverage for their programs, partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programs are growing within the mental health treatment community. This book provides clinicians (including social workers, counselors, therapists, and psychiatric nurses) new to partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient practice settings with a conceptual framework and practical skills for effective and efficient practice. It helps clinicians to develop realistic expectations for treatment in a managed care environment with limited time and funding. Partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient treatment programs (PHPs/IOPs) can present particularly stressful environments in which clinicians are engaged in multiple treatment processes with groups of diverse patients, all at different points in the treatment process. This book borrows the "ecology of games" concept from political theory to assist clinicians in managing their time to the greatest advantage and providing professional treatment to all patients simultaneously. It describes the key elements of a PHP/IOP, including treatment planning, discharge planning, group therapy, psychoeducation, and safety and confidentiality issues. It then addresses challenges unique to specific patient populations in the program--children, adults, older adults, the chronically mentally ill, the chemical dependent, individuals with co-occurring disorders--and offers strategies for coping with the multitude of issues they present. Key Features: Provides practical strategies for handling a variety of clinical issues in the PHP/IOP setting Covers specific problems and treatment planning goals for varied populations Guides clinicians in developing realistic expectations for treatment in a managed care environment with limited time and funding Includes chapters dedicated to coping with a death in a program, the personality-disordered patient, and conflicts among staff

Psychotherapy is an indispensable approach in the treatment of mental disorders and, for some mental disorders, it is the most effective treatment. Yet, psychotherapy is abound with ethical issues. In psychotherapy ethics, numerous fundamental ethical issues converge, including self-determination/autonomy, decision-making capacity and freedom of choice, coercion and constraint, medical paternalism, the fine line between healthiness and illness, insight into illness and need of therapy, dignity, under- and overtreatment, and much more. The Oxford Handbook of Psychotherapy Ethics explores a whole range of ethical issues in the heterogenous field of psychotherapy thereby closing a widespread perceived gap between ethical sensitivity, technical language, and knowledge among psychotherapists. The book is intended not only for a clinical audience, but also for a philosophical/ethical audience - linking the two disciplines by fostering a productive dialogue between them, thereby enriching both the psychotherapeutic encounter and the ethical analysis and sensitivity in and outside the clinic. An essential book for psychotherapists in clinical practice, it will also be valuable for those professionals providing mental health services beyond psychology and medicine, including counsellors, social workers, nurses, and ministers.

"Models of Inpatient Group Psychotherapy" is distinctive in its comprehensive coverage of a wide variety of models, each considered specifically within the context of inpatient care. With years of experience in conducting groups and training psychotherapists, Brabender and Fallon focus on what works in various settings for therapists of various theoretical orientations and levels of experience. For each model, they consider the theoretical underpinnings, characteristic interventions, relevant research, strengths and weaknesses, and demands of the setting, giving particular attention to variables that are unique to the inpatient setting. Using clinical illustrations, the authors demonstrate how the therapist can choose, adapt, and implement the model most suited to heighten group experience and achieve group goals.
