Online Group Therapy

“A fine contribution to 2021 online psychodrama. This book is both practical and crucial.”

Márcia Karp M.A. TEP, International Psychodrama Practitioner, Trainer, Supervisor; Original Graduate of JL

“The authors of this book have offered a deep exploration, innovative ideas and affirmations on group

psychotherapy being successfully offered online. While the technology and infrastructure for tele-therapy

has been available since the mid-1990s, the need for overcoming challenges and helping people since Covid

has embraced it fully. Both professionals and clients have experienced the benefits of the psychotherapeutic

methods being utilized in the comfort and the safety of their own space, overcoming various restrictions and

obstacles. Worldwide, both individual and group psychotherapy, offered in virtual settings, has

tremendously increased and its growing wave is evidence that online/teletherapy is here to stay. This book

is one of the first methodological and practical instruments to assist the group psychotherapists of today

and the future.”

Daniela Simmons, PhD, TEP, Creator of the Tele'Drama Method and the International Tele'Drama Institute

(ITI).

“I realized that with this guide book, which has reached us at a universal turning point when Jacob

Levy Moreno's question of "who will survive" often comes to our minds, is a gateway to a place that

we can find ways to survive with confidence and determination. This book contains enough

enlightening information to shine a light on every situation we are stuck in the field of group

psychotherapy in the new and unknown digital interaction period. First of all, it provides information

on how to create a solid and safe space about the frame issue. It defines a protective and preventive

framework in the light of basic information such as the requirements, functions, and domains of

group psychotherapy. Moreover, it gives us the chance to continue these practices in our country with

a knowledge-based courage at a time when the world is confused about what to do.”
