THERAPYAbstract
Over the past decade, a quiet but nonetheless dramatic shift has been occurring with reference to the treatment of choice. In a wide variety of mental health settings, group techniques have become so accepted and valued that there is every reason to expect they will soon be more popular than the traditional individual counselling and therapy approaches. Since one of the primary goals of therapy is to help the individual person to function more genuinely and effectively within his or her social milieu, this trend toward group techniques makes a lot of sense professionally. In other words, if after treatment our patient or client is loaded with insight but still cannot find a meaningful personal role for interaction with the outer world, then we simply have not been successful.
