An Introduction to Cognitive Psychodrama Group Therapy and Its Application to Handling Distressing Events
Cognitive Psychodrama Group Therapy (CPGT) is a group therapy model that integrates the techniques and theories of Cognitive Behavior Therapy and Psychodrama. CPGT enacts positive change in clients through the use of Automatic Thought Records and Psychodramatic techniques. Psychodramas unfold as the group members begin to understand their core beliefs and cognitive distortions in a way that enhances the power of the action and healing that takes place within the psychodrama.

This workbook provides an in depth look at an innovative approach to group therapy, one in which the powerful role playing processes of psychodrama are coupled with the insight building tools of cognitive behavior therapy to create a positive, healing group process where individual change can take place. Group Therapy Workbook: Integrating Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with Psychodramatic Theory and Practice is a brilliant volume jam packed with exceptional tools and acuity. This is a powerful guide for both beginner and experienced clinicians alike.

Treadwell’s Group Therapy Workbook seamlessly integrates two well-known group treatments—cognitive behavioral and psychodrama—into a single model that captures the best of both worlds. The clear clinical examples bring the worksheets to life and demonstrate how one can creatively link the techniques of CBT and psychodrama. The 16-session Cognitive Psychodrama Group Therapy model is structured by empirically supported interventions but has ample flexibility to accommodate groups with varied clinical profiles. I look forward to future research testing the effects of another integrative group model.
