Discussion 1: Identifying a Scholarly Article on Group Counseling
Identify a relevant scholarly article relating to the use of cognitive theory, motivational interviewing, or solution focused theory in group counseling for addictions, and discuss how the article informs your understanding of the approach. Use the Capella library to search for current scholarly, peer-reviewed journal articles. Consider exploring articles in journals such as the Journal of Groups in Addiction Recovery or Alcoholism Treatment Quarterly. Your work in the first and second discussions of Unit 2 will help you research articles to use in your assignment for the unit. Be sure to cite your references in APA format.
Discussion 2: Peer Review of Scholarly Article
Using the article you selected in the first discussion of this unit, or an article you found through a fellow learner's post for the same discussion activity, discuss ways in which the theory is used to benefit clients in group treatment for addictions. Then explain how the theory supports your beliefs about how people change.
The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
