ReviewsIvey and Ibrahim provide us with a unique contribution to the expanding group work literature that brilliantly forges new ground. It will fill an existing gap through its focus on precise leadership skills set within a clear framework that integrates group work best practices with multicultural sensitivities. This book will be inherently valuable to practitioners and to faculty of group work training programs alike, by offering informed direction that is urgently needed to deliver comprehensive group work skills that respect and capture multicultural differences." -Robert K. Conyne, Ph.D., Professor Emeritus, University of Cincinnati, Licensed Psychologist and Licensed Clinical Counselor, President, Charting Your Personal Future "With the notions of intentionality, cultural competence, and social justice foregrounded, this text is a phenomenal resource. Ibrahim and her colleagues masterfully integrate microskills, the group process, and issues of culture and social justice throughout the text. Moreover, by giving the reader the tools to put their learning into action, theory and practice are blended to enhance understanding of group concepts and interventions." -Carlos P. Hipolito-Delgado, Associate Professor, University of Colorado Denver, School of Education and Human Development Counseling

SynopsisIntentional Group Counseling: Best Practices for a Multicultural World provides students with essential best practices for conducting group counseling sessions in a diverse society. The text presents students with the latest research in applied psychology and group counseling, and also breaks down the complex art of leadership into individual skills using the Microskills approach. Embracing an experiential learning framework, students are guided through the practical application of learned Microskills in real-world group settings to further develop their competencies within dynamic environments. The book begins with best practices for intentional group leadership, ethics, cultural competence, and social justice in group work. Later chapters focus on listening and process skills, managing conflict and confrontation, and how to employ interpersonal influence to help clients explore logical consequences, group feedback, and meaningful reflection. The text closes with discussions of alternative theoretical approaches to group work, strategies for working with children and adolescents, and how to develop a personal leadership style. Designed to help future clinicians prepare to lead diverse populations through effective and profound group sessions, Intentional Group Counseling is ideal for courses in group work, group counseling, social work, and psychology.
