★團體心理治療經典，全球暢銷50年，心輔、諮商、醫療、社工等助人工作者必讀。★存在主義與人際心理治療大師亞隆與雷斯克醫師再度攜手合作，傳授團體治療畢生絕學，眾所期待。★第六版為最新版，內容經大幅更新，並特闢章節討論線上團體優缺點與執行技巧。團體心理治療標竿著作，助人者實務百寶箱自1940年代問世以來，團體治療有強而有力的證據顯示其有效性與個別治療相當，不論在心理健康、物質濫用障礙或生理疾病的處遇上，都是如此。但大多數心理治療從業人員極度缺乏團體治療訓練，對其理論和運作機制也一無所悉。本書是為有志學習團體治療的專業人士而寫，其最重要的基本假設之一，是「此時此地」（here-and-now）的人際互動在有效的團體治療中至關重要。作者亞隆和雷斯克認為，案主來到治療室，尋求的不是對過往的洞察，而是對當下的改變與對未來的希望。真正有力的治療團體能提供一個舞台，讓案主自由地與他人互動，藉由幫助成員識別和理解他們互動中的問題，最終改變案主適應不良的模式。在本書中，作者精心探索了團體治療11個療效因素的作用，並整合了團體治療實務之最新知識和智慧結晶。第六版引入新的臨床素材，大量採用實例帶出重要概念和原則，且為因應COVID-19疫情帶來的挑戰，特闢了線上團體的章節。不論是學生、受訓者、一線專業人員，以及督導者和教師們，皆能從本書獲益。這本書是真正的經典。鑑於愈來愈多國家的公衛系統接納團體心理治療，這個最新版本對臨床工作者來說，具有舉足輕重的幫助，它也卓越地將研究結果和臨床智慧連接起來。本書支持了好幾代團體心理治療師，同時它也更新了團體的理論與實務議題。──伯納德‧史特勞斯（Bernhard Strauss），德國耶拿大學教授這個新版本為我們提供了寶貴的機會，讓我們可以從亞隆和雷斯克傑出合作的智慧和專業中獲益。這個作品在無價的臨床見解和案例方面都保留了過去版本的優點，並且引入新素材來強化此版本。為了因應COVID-19疫情帶來的挑戰，他們增加了一個有關線上團體的章節。我期待與我的學生和同事分享這個彙整近期研究結果的新版，這是一個有價值的資源！──艾歴西斯‧Ｄ‧亞伯內西（Alexis D. Abernethy），福樂院心理學教授 亞隆和雷斯克的合作為這本書帶來了新的創意――這本書已經塑造了50年前它幫助催生的領域，這是其他書本無法做到的。他們在扎根於當今學術研究的狀況下，進一步既廣且詳

How can the Orphans share the story of the Ogress's goodness with people who refuse to listen? And how can they help their misguided
