Thank you for making these videos! I’m a new grad student that’s starting to facilitate group therapy at homes & we haven’t even officially gotten to group therapy techniques in our classes. Luckily, the more experienced students from other universities are helping me out too.
awww- Christine - I am so touched by this - thank you for taking the time to tell me. If you haven't done so already, please dig around on the channel and you'll find more group therapy videos which are all techniques based
This was so helpful today. Just when I feel like groups are becoming stagnant, I come to this channel and watch new videos or brush up on the older ones. You have a gift for communicating these ideas
is it just me or does asking group members to interpret each others behaviours seem like a surefire way to start an all our war within the group? I mean, look how sarcastic Ken was about Barbie ;) Imagine that kind of snide shit in a real group. Then you have to manage infighting.
No. And what would be the issue if there was a disagreement between two people? It's just more to process. But, I think you might have missed a video on 'The Group Agreement', it's the first one video in this series, it explains what a process group is, what we're trying to do (and get members to do), and defines how the group agrees to participate.

oh that is so generous of you - thank you! I swear by bridging it really really makes a difference and gets the group being a group
hi sir your videos are super helpful..keep up the good work...need more on groups therapy.
These are so helpful thank you for making them!
my pleasure- i am thrilled you found them
I try to get as many participants involved in the conversation but most of them tend to remain silent.
Then you would bridge to the people who are talking to those that are not talking. 'Jimmy, what do you imagine is going on with Jenny?'
Would be more challenging with Darth Vader and Luke
I think that might be my next family therapy video - all those daddy issues?!
