Welcome
to the website for Auckland Group Psychotherapy.
My name is Crispin Balfour and I am an experienced
registered psychotherapist working with individuals,
couples and groups.
I practice in Grey Lynn, Auckland and work with men and
women with a wide range of issues.
Group-analytic psychotherapy is a serious alternative to
individual psychotherapy, and in some cases is the
treatment of choice. It offers a very different experience
from working one-on-one, as the therapy is by the group, of
the group, including the conductor.
Generally group psychotherapy is cheaper than individual
psychotherapy.
The group is set up so the unconscious of the individuals
and the group can be observed and understood. The group
takes on a life of its own that stands for something in the
minds of its members.
