This Comprehensive Guide authored by Neal King will enable you to start and run a Comedy Improv Group for your clients or the community. All the games and directions, as well as insights into their use, is included. This manual may be used on its own or accompany my experiential training workshops on the subject. If you have experience facilitating groups, then you may likely utilize this manual to create a group of your own.

Participating in Comedy Improv Group Therapy can be an experiential process that allows change and enhances application of improvements, similar to exposure and/or immersion therapy. This specific type of group and the layering of activities have yielded wonderful results in developing better interaction skills and less fear within those interactions.

Although this group is designed for those identified with Social Anxiety Disorder, the accompanying distress can be experienced even if not having all the criteria of Social Anxiety Disorder. This group is an excellent fit for anyone struggling with low self-confidence and shyness, as well as ‘feeling awkward' in social situations.
