Excerpt
In this chapter I provide a brief overview of the role, efficacy, advantages, and disadvantages of group therapy in the treatment of substance use disorders. I describe the complementary roles of group therapy and mutual self-help groups, the four most commonly used group therapy approaches, and important considerations in setting up and conducting substance abuse treatment groups. Additional information on these and other relevant topics is available from many other resources, including the references, recommended readings, and Web sites listed at the end of this chapter.
