Description

This course provides a basic introduction to working with therapeutic groups including history and ethics of group consultation. It examines two theory sets that guide generalist practice in therapeutic groups - stages of group development and psychodynamics. This course is built around theory learning, and practice of that learning in experiential exercises. Outcomes focus on becoming aware of self in a group setting, assessing group dynamics, and using theory to guide group interventions. Prerequisites: SWK130, SWK341, and SWK342. (3 s.h.)
