Overview

Mental health and addictions continue to remain significant health challenges. Dr Coleman and colleagues had many clients and students that needed relief from addictions, psychological pathologies, and unresolved traumas, and understood that new therapeutic methods were needed to help large groups of hurting people. Life After Crime is one psychologist's memoir illustrating how diverse clients were brought back to health and successful society involvement through innovative and large group therapeutic processes. Their individual challenges, sufferings, and responses to various therapeutic venues are told in this fast paced, action-packed novel. Highlighted stories of recovery include Deliris, an actual recovering addict featured in HBO's Life of Crime series; Ray, an ex-convicted criminal turned counselor and mentor; Star, a suburban teen who impulsively took fentanyl under social pressure, and numerous recovering broken families. Techniques and processes taught in How to Make Group Psychotherapy Work, New Perspectives on Group Therapy, are brought to life in this collection of real events and true stories, some with happy and not so happy endings.
