A standard text for teaching about group therapy with adolescents....There are many clinical examples. The book is extremely well written and fun to read., "Highly recommended for all of us who do--or plan to do--group work with adolescents....The strength of the book is the clear structure and solid advice but also the fact that it is based on personal experience by the author."--Acta Paediatrica "A standard text for teaching about group therapy with adolescents....There are many clinical examples. The book is extremely well written and fun to read."--ASAP Newsletter(American Society for Adolescent Psychiatry) "Entertaining and engaging….Malekoff inspires the reader with stories and poetry grounded in a broad survey of the theoretical roots of group work. He is clearly a creative and engaging practitioner….I would recommendGroup Work with Adolescentsto those health professionals working with groups on wards, day treatment programs, forensic units or other milieu therapy situations. It would be useful to counselors working in the school system or in community mental health settings. You might ask your trainees to read this book prior to doing group work with you in one of these settings….A pleasant, engaging and inspiring read."--Journal of the Canadian Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, "Highly recommended for all of us who do--or plan to do--group work with adolescents....The strength of the book is the clear structure and solid advice but also the fact that it is based on personal experience by the author."--Acta Paediatrica "A standard text for teaching about group therapy with adolescents....There are many clinical examples.

Toseland, MSW, PhD, School of Social Welfare, University at Albany, State University of New York "The original edition of this book became an instant classic--required reading for anyone who works with teens. The second edition is ideally suited to practice in the post-9/11 era, as evidenced by the strong emphasis on working with adolescents exposed to trauma and violence. Malekoff has also updated the material dealing with resilience, substance abuse, sexuality, and other crucial issues facing young people today.

I couldn't put it down! The book is practical and poetic. It delivers theory and method, classic principles and novel approaches. Concepts, perspectives, and methods, so clearly spelled out, come alive through the beautiful vignettes. There is no psychobabble--the talk is real and the work authentic--and the new chapters are excellent. Malekoff puts meaning to the 'strengths perspective,' a term that too often just rolls off the tongue; his application of this framework to children and adolescents fills a gap in the literature. The chapter on violence, illustrated by transcripts from a range of groups, is startling.
