324 Words2 Pages

Group therapy, dealing with Grief, very supportive in my time of despair, dealing with a loved one who committed suicide. It was a very trying and traumatize experience for me at the time of the death. I have been through the grievance before with love ones, but never one like this. It was very overwhelming due to the fact I found him. The mere fact of finding someone who took their life in a violent way was very devastating for me.

The work was hard and exhausting, however at the end of our two weeks, I cried. Not for the work, but for the people whom I had worked with.

  • Support Group Therapy

    Survivors Support Group I am currently on the mental health track, so looking at a potential group that I might encounter would encompass female victims of domestic violence and abuse (DVA) which is also referred to as intimate partner violence (IPV) and rape or sexual assault victims (as statues vary depending on the states definition). Both forms of abuse stem from a power and control dynamic. The use of force during sex is not about sexual pleasure for the perpetrator, instead the pleasure comes from being in a position of power and having control over another human being. The act of hurting and demeaning the woman is the real pleasure. DVA/IPV consists of physical, sexual, emotional, and economic abuse.

  • Group Therapy: Involuntary Membership

    Ethical Issues in Group Therapy: Involuntary Membership Group psychotherapy is often voluntary, but sometimes members have been mandated by the court or other authorities to participate. Participation is usually easier for voluntary members since it doesn’t have the added psychological barrier of being forced to attend. For this reason, mandated members have difficulty with participation and are sometimes perceived as reluctant (Roth, 2005). It is important that members understand the dynamics within the group and what goals and processes are involved in being a part of that group. This essay will focus on the strategies of assisting group leaders and group members in engaging in the process of psychotherapy by providing informed consent, learning
