Book Introduction
The first and last bible of group psychotherapy! Irvin D.
Yalom and Molyn Leszcz's "Modern Group Psychotherapy Theory and Practice" has been revised and published in its 6th edition after 15 years.
This book, which has been revised six times over many years, can be said to contain the essence of group therapy and group counseling.
After COVID-19, a contactless society emerged, and new forms of non-face-to-face groups became active.
Competition, conflict, and extinction in a shrinking society...
Interpersonal conflicts have intensified in various forms, and the difficulties many people face today are none other than conflicts in interpersonal relationships.
Excessive competition is making things difficult, and the closeness between family members is not what it used to be.
So, surprisingly, many people find it difficult to interact with each other, so they live scattered and lonely lives.
This sixth edition provides an opportunity to practice and learn how to interact and connect with people through group therapy and counseling, which form a miniature society in this modern world.
We've added the latest data and clinical research throughout, and we've also added a section on online therapy groups to reflect the new forms of non-face-to-face groups that have become active due to the global pandemic of COVID-19.
The author worked long and hard to add new material, cutting out old material and quotations, hoping to avoid an overly voluminous book that would easily end up on a bookshelf.
I hope that this book, a testament to the author's hard work, will serve as a timely and up-to-date reference that will be helpful to all those studying this field for the next 15 years and beyond.
