Me and my co-author Laura Balogh went to #AGPAConnect 2023 to do a presentation about group psychotherapy with students, and the therapeutic inclusion program. It turns out that the group of people who show up at 7am(!) to engage about group counseling in schools is an especially great group.

We also got to take in a number of presentations - some notable ones included a demonstration of using role-playing table top games in group counseling, a group adaptation of Yale's SPACE Treatment to treat children with anxiety disorders through their parents, and a thought-provoking demonstration group led by group psychotherapist Richard Billow.

My co-author and I are presenting at AGPA Connect in NYC next Thursday. (That's the American Group Psychotherapy Association.)

We will be leading a session about our experience with group psychotherapy in schools, for students with significant social, emotional, and behavioral challenges.

Chapter 3 of our book is all about it too.

I'm very interested in connecting with people on mastadon who are interested in school counseling, and group psychotherapy!
