COMPLEMENTARY REPORT FROM GROUP PSYCHOTHERAPY TO INDIVIDUAL PSYCHOTHERAPY
Group psychotherapy theories have emerged from social problems of different periods and a great number of group theories and practices have unfolded from that. When combined with individual therapy, benefits are undeniable. Supported by an experience of seven years with clients who were treated with a combination of group and individual psychotherapy, the authors want to illustrate the optimal benefits that clients can get by being in conjoint individual and group therapy. Group psychotherapy promotes personal liberation as well as social skills and responsibility. The theoretical frame of reference is basically existential/humanistic, supported by recent discoveries of the affective neurosciences.
