Group psychotherapy is the collaborative exploration of relationships as they develop among the members of a group, including the therapist. It offers the opportunity to see ourselves through the eyes of others, and to see ourselves in others.

Group psychotherapy is not primarily a problem solving therapy and there are no pre-set topics. Instead group members are invited to participate in an open conversation, a kind of free association between the members of the group including the conductor.

Through the developing network of relationships, we can discover the unconscious influences affecting our current emotional experience. Over time our inner world becomes more available to us through our experience of the group, and the group itself takes its own place inside us as a resource for the future.
