a practical guide to group and couples work Sackett, Carrie creator author. Dabby, Murray author. text bibliography nyu 2024 monographic eng 1 online resource (248 pages) : illustrations ; "Combining social therapeutics with the practice of coaching, this book guides coaches and mental health professionals in how to coach groups and couples using this innovative method. Drawing from the authors' combined 50 years of experience, Social Therapeutic Coaching empowers practitioners to break away from focusing on individual change to focusing on groups and their emotional growth. Early chapters touch on the history of coaching and powerful discoveries of social therapeutics before diving into how to lead a social therapeutic group. Sackett and Dabby explain how to incorporate the concept of human relationality into coaching sessions, demonstrating how it extends group work beyond assembling like-minded individuals with similar goals into bringing together diverse people with diverse issues that they want to work on and grow around. It also brings a fresh lens to working with couples, in which the focus is on discovering what 'the relationship' needs, rather than trying to get individuals to compromise, change, or work towards a pre-conceived shared vision for an end-goal. Written in an accessible style and filled with extensive case studies and examples, Social Therapeutic Coaching provides a powerful toolkit for coaches, counsellors, psychotherapists, social workers, HR and talent development professionals, community-based leaders and social entrepreneurs"-- A Brief History of Coaching -- The Emergence of Social Therapeutics -- Why Groups -- Seeing Emotional Growth as the Path to Transformation -- The Social Therapeutic Group Leader -- Group Coaching Nuts and Bolts -- Social Therapeutic Couples Coaching -- Couples Coaching Nuts and Bolts -- Six Case Studies.
