Overview

Growing Groups: A Journey of Healing, Growth, and Renewal provides readers with the knowledge and insight they need to effectively develop, nurture, participate in, and lead groups. The opening chapter explores different types of groups, their characteristics, and the benefits of belonging to a group. Readers learn the importance of ensuring emotional safety in group contexts through informed consent, cultural awareness and sensitivity, and the promise of confidentiality. Dedicated chapters outline the stages of group development and examine the neural process of psychological healing that occurs as a result of successful group interactions. Readers learn about the nature and function of emotions, internal and external conflict, how to deal with differences, and more. The closing chapter speaks to how human beings are wired for connection and how a lack of connection can lead to loneliness, isolation, and physical illness. Featuring a bevy of practical tools for group leaders—including warm-up questions to inspire connection, discussion prompts, handouts, and more—Growing Groups is an accessible and valuable resource for courses in leading groups and group therapy.
