Group Analytic Therapists at Work contains discussion of themes such as group work with differing age ranges and life stages, cultural considerations, normativity, inclusion and exclusion, isolation and the internet. Each chapter provides insight from an experienced group analyst into what happens in groups, what group analysts think about while running their groups and, fundamentally, what group analysis is about.

Rezensionen

"This is an ambitious book and its aims - to provide a history of group analysis, to identify some of the key issues in contemporary practice and to say something about how groups might be expected to help people - are resoundingly well met. The authors expertly set out the many strands which arise in a multi-authored text of this kind and the breadth and the depth of the many well-chosen clinical examples shed light on how one might utilise that knowledge to promote insight and understanding. The contributors reflect on the original concepts and introduce some new ideas arising from their own valuable body of written work and practice illustrated with some well-chosen clinical examples. An absorbing read." - Ewa Wojciechowska, The

Institute of Group Analysis

"This book is a declaration of love for groups and for group analysis. It tells us why groups are important, what kind of role they play in our lives and how we can use group analysis, as a specific psychotherapeutic method, to explore the inner dynamics of groups, thus helping to heal disturbed human beings. The book describes and focuses on many different aspects, thus being of great help to those, who always wanted to know, how group analysis cures and why group analysis is so efficient in doing this." - Prof. Dr. Elisabeth Rohr, Philipps-University of Marburg, Germany and International Group Analytic Consultant (GASI).

"This collaborative work from members of a leading group analytic network provides an invaluable exploration of how group analysis, with its understanding of the individual as a nodal point in a dynamic matrix of social, cultural, biological, and political forces, offers an effective model for a comprehensive intersectional understanding of groups and individuals in a complex, interdependent world. Covering both the underpinnings of the group analytic approach as well as contemporary developments in theory and practice, this book will engage clinicians, academics and anyone interested in the psychosocial world." - Peter Wilson, Fitzrovia Group Analytic Practice
