Interpersonal Psychotherapy For Group [Hardcover]

This is the first-ever application to group therapy of the popular, replicable, time-limited, evidence-based approach initially developed to treat individual depression. Denise Wilfley adapted it in the course of researching the management of eating disorders; her collaborators include a national authority on group work plus an originator of Interpersonal Psychotherapy. Their step-by-step identification of the goals, tasks, and techniques attendant on running normalizing, cost-effective groups makes a real contribution to the clinical repertoire.

Denise Wilfley, Ph.D., has joint faculty appointments at the University of California–San Diego and San Diego State University.

K. Roy MacKenzie, Ph.D., andMyrna Weissman, Ph.D., have published widely on group therapy and Interpersonal Psychotherapy respectively.
