Running a therapeutic group is a distinct clinical skill, and occupational therapy students are usually expected to acquire it in a single semester. Marilyn Cole’s Group Dynamics in Occupational Therapy is the text that makes that possible, largely because of its Seven Step format — a repeatable structure for planning and leading a session that students can use on fieldwork immediately.

What the book covers

• Cole’s Seven Steps: introduction, activity, sharing, processing, generalising, application and summary
• Group development theory and the stages groups move through
• Leadership styles and how to match one to a group’s needs
• Frames of reference applied to group work, including behavioural, cognitive and psychodynamic approaches
• Adapting groups for different populations, diagnoses and settings
• Ready-to-use group protocols and session plans
• Documentation and evaluating group outcomes

Who it’s for

Occupational therapy and OTA students taking a group process course, fieldwork students preparing to lead their first sessions, and practising therapists building programming.
