Online Group Trauma Therapy shows clinicians how to provide trauma therapy in group format that can be either online or in-person.
The integrative, phase-based approach of the therapy is structured to provide clients with skills and tools to manage and regulate intense posttraumatic symptoms and then process and integrate their traumatic experiences. It’s a modality useful for clinicians with a wide variety of clients, including those who have experienced complex trauma, who come from a wide range of socioeconomic statuses, and who have diverse backgrounds. Clinicians will find the methods presented here intuitive, user-friendly, and easy to deliver. The limited number of sessions and group-based arrangement also makes them cost effective.
This book offers clinicians an opportunity to reach more clients who are isolated, remote, and otherwise unable to travel to a clinic. The book also gives clinicians the tools they need to treat larger numbers of people simultaneously and thereby attend to more clients in need of treatment.
Reviews and Endorsements
'This book is a gift to clinicians working in trauma care! It’s written with warmth and clarity, offering practical tools and moving reflections that make complex concepts easy to grasp. Each chapter feels like guidance from trusted colleagues who understand the real challenges of this work—especially in our post-pandemic, online-therapy world. The writing is organized, compassionate, and alive with authenticity. It not only strengthens professional skills but also re-inspires hope in the healing process itself. A must-have!'
Mirisse Foroughe, PhD, author of Emotion Focused Therapy for Youth and clinical director, Family Psychology Centre, Toronto
'With a rare blend of clinical depth and practical wisdom, this book captures what so many trauma clinicians intuitively know but struggle to name: the living pulse of safety, attunement, and courage that makes healing possible, even online. Through compelling case studies and clear guidance, it shows how connection, presence, and co-regulation can thrive in digital spaces. For anyone working with trauma or dissociation, this is both a manual and a mirror for our most human work.'
Christine Forner, MSW, RSW, author of Dissociation, Mindfulness, and Creative Meditations and former president, International Society for the Study of Trauma & Dissociation
'Resources dedicated to mental healthcare are quickly dwindling. More cost-efficient ways of delivering optimal care to this population will undoubtedly become increasingly important. Online Group Trauma Therapy is a beautifully written, trauma-responsive blueprint for clinicians who want to add online group therapy to their practice. This is an essential guide for anyone who provides treatment for posttraumatic stress in the 21st century.'
J. Eric Gentry, PhD, president and CEO, The Forward-Facing Institute, Phoenix
