Abstract: | As a result of a review of the literature and especially Brown and Yalom's (1977) clinical report, it is suggested that the preferred mode of treatment for alcoholism is group psychotherapy. The group's ability to provide support, structure and reinforcement for abstinence make it a powerful catalyst in the recovery process. In measures of time, efficacy and recovery, group psychotherapy generally succeeds where other treatment modalities frequently fail. |
