This book is all you need to lead a girls group in middle or high school. It's full of activities, thoughtful discussion questions and journal topics. Each section has more activities than you can complete during a group session. Required materials can be easily found in your own home (magazine pictures, index cards, string, etc.) Other counselors I know have used this in schools and I've used it with 8th-10th graders at church. It's up-to-date content and language make it relevant to present day girl situations. I highly recommend this!

I am a therapist and group coordinator for a private practice. When I started our office's group therapy program last year I knew I wanted to have a group that helped girls understand themself better and be more prepared for developing a richer character and better social skills. GOLD MINE!! This is IT! It has been such a huge success that we continue to offer it ever session. Schools, parents, other mental health therapist and professionals are calling my office to refer their clients to our group. Hands down a must have for anyone planning on leading a girls group.
