Authored by Judith A. Margolin, Group Therapy for Complex Trauma, 1st Edition, provides a schema-informed framework for leading group interventions with complex trauma populations. The publication outlines systematic clinical methods for organizing treatment groups, establishing structural safety, and guiding therapeutic interactions when working with individuals affected by complex post-traumatic stress disorder.

The text examines early childhood trauma and its long-term psychological impact, focusing on complex post-traumatic stress disorder (CPTSD). In addition, the thematic coverage investigates how trauma interacts with substance use disorders, eating disorders, and behavioral addictions, offering clinical context for managing complex co-occurring presentations in group settings.

Designed as a dedicated training resource for clinicians, group therapy leaders, and mental health professionals, the volume adapts to various clinical settings. Its structural model supports group facilitation across inpatient settings, partial hospitalization programs, intensive outpatient care, and traditional outpatient environments.
