Elegantly written and highly accessible to all practitioners interested in group work, Karen Weixel-Dixon's Existential Group Psychotherapy and Counselling provides a much-needed exploration of group therapy as understood and practiced from an existential perspective. In addition, Weixel-Dixon's emphasis on the possibilities of a dialogue-driven approach both reflects the principles of existential therapy and clarifies their relationally-grounded implications.

"The doing of therapy is essentially grounded in a philosophy of Being." This idea is found throughout this formidable book where we learn about the origins of an existential-phenomenological model for working with groups, going deeper into the themes, processes and aspects of this approach to both counseling and psychotherapy. It will undoubtedly become a classic for understanding the possibilities of the Existential approach.
