GROUP THERAPY

Primary Purpose

, The primary purpose of group therapy is to
facilitate changes by the patient to address
identified problems.
The nurse/therapist does not “fix” the client. The
group process promotes insight, behavioral change,
coping skills, and interpersonal growth.

Characteristics of Group Therapy
• 6–12 members (optimal size)

• Shared goal or common problem

• Regular, structured meetings

• Established rules (confidentiality, attendance,

respect)
• Facilitated by a trained leader (usually in formal

therapy groups)
• Emphasis on “here and now” interactions o focus is

on what is happening in the present moment within
the group, rather than discussing only past events.
