Group Counseling
The subtleties of counseling are very difficult to accurately express in written form alone. This is particularly true in the case of group work, where the interpersonal dynamics expand geometrically. A good group counseling textbook, such as the fifth edition of Group Counseling: Concepts and Procedures (2013), can provide a solid foundation, but video demonstrations can illustrate the nuances of the group experience in ways that words alone cannot. To provide just such a video, Kevin A. Fall has filmed a series of segments of a group in which he acts as leader with six participants, over the course of which he demonstrates the stages of a group moving from the first session through to termination. Fall offers regular sections of audio commentary, analysis, and processing on each segment, totaling a 120 minute program. The companion workbook provides additional information to fill in what is not shown on the film and includes exercises, activities, and discussion questions related to each video segment. The video and workbook are designed to work seamlessly with the Berg, Landreth, and Fall text, but they can also be used alongside any other group counseling textbook.

African Americans? Perception of Mental Health Professions
This study explored African-Americans' perceptions of various mental health professions through the ranking of confidence levels across five case vignettes of varying psychiatric severity. Results indicated that African-Americans viewed psychologists and doctoral level licensed professional counselors with similar levels of confidence and ranked doctoral level licensed professional counselors above master's level counselors in every case example. Congruent with previous studies, the African American sample was confident in counselors' ability to treat less severe cases and less confident in their ability to treat more severe cases.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]

USING CHOICE THEORY TO CONCEPTUALIZE CO-LEADER RELATIONSHIPS IN GROUP WORK
Co-leadership is a group facilitation modality where the relationship between the co-leaders is meant to be a curative force within the group. While the importance of this relationship has been established, guidance on how to develop, maintain, and understand the relationship is scarce. This manuscript outlines a conceptualization of the co-leadership relationship from a Choice Theory perspective with the goal of providing practitioners with a theoretically consistent method of potential relationship growth.

Seventy years of co-leadership: Where do we go from here?
For over seventy years, mental health professionals have employed a modality of therapy that uses more than one counselor with an individual or a group of clients. Although widely discussed in the professional literature and extensively practiced among group leaders, what does the research community of group practitioners know about co-leadership? This paper reviews the literature on co-leadership and summarizes the information by advantages and disadvantages of the approach. The paper concludes with recommendations for the future exploration of the effectiveness of co-leadership.
