Excellent explanations and a great resource for beginning counselors. It is a definite keeper for your library. Unfortunately, it is ten years old and needs some serious electronic updating for its video and CD-ROM materials.

Lastly, its instances of questioning responses outnumber directing responses significantly, which goes against the authors' directives.
Excellent text for the beginning counselor or student

This book comes with a CD and video. It offers excellent definitions and examples of group counseling skills. In addition it offers a number of written scenarious and exercises to practice understanding counseling responses. The video has a women's group counseling session and an adolsecent group session, The book has a script you can follow which helps to understand the responses of the counselors.
