Advances in Group Psychotherapy: Living in the Passionate Bad Fit

Advances in Group Psychotherapy presents an exploration of the work of Stewart Aledort in group psychotherapy.

The book covers key areas of Aledort’s work in group psychotherapy, including theory and working with shame, anger, and aggression in the group. It includes theoretical and clinical cases from Aledort’s work throughout, as well as new interviews which explore his most well-known theories. The book also explores Aledort’s retirement from practice, with interviews exploring how he ended his group work after more than five decades.

Advances in Group Psychotherapy will be of great interest to all group psychotherapy and group analysis practitioners in practice and in training.
