This book is incredible. As someone new to the field of Chemical Dependency Counseling this book has given me many ideas and has made facilitating groups much easier as I gain experience.

Actually the text book speaks for itself. The activities that contain within this book is a tremendous help to the counselor and the client as well. The approach is carefully thought-out with the client constantly in mind.

I originally bought this book to use with adult substance abuse groups, but I have found it useful in every position I’ve held. This book is full of great activities that can be adapted for different age groups. While a lot of the substance abuse material is more appropriate for adults, each activity gives a target age group and many of them have a different version for teens. I have a lot of group workbooks, but this is the one I find myself reaching for most often – when my coworkers haven’t borrowed it! I would highly recommend this book to anyone who needs group activities for a variety of issues.
On a practical note, the spiral binding makes it SO easy to make copies of the worksheets. I don’t know why all group workbooks aren’t made like this.
