Abstract

Background

We describe our experience of developing Guided Self Help for patients with Functional Neurological Symptom Disorder as group therapy, delivered remotely, via Zoom.

Aims

The aims of the current study are (a) to describe how the original Queen Square Guided Self-Help (QGSH) was adapted for group therapy, and (b) to present a service evaluation of the first 8 months of running QGSH therapy groups remotely.

Methods

We carried out a review after 8 months, from 11 May 2021 until 31 January 2022.

Results

A total of 16 patients were treated in three groups. Assessing our outcomes in terms of Yalom's framework for group psychotherapy, we found that the group provided 10/11 of Yalom's therapeutic factors. Patient satisfaction was high.

Discussion

We outline for plans for further devaluation and development, including the development of a stand-alone group.

Conclusion

The group therapy format is a promising addition to our service.

为等待住院多学科治疗的 FNSD 患者提供小组心理治疗形式的指导自助：试点研究

背景我们介绍了通过 Zoom 远程为功能性神经症状障碍患者开发小组疗法 "引导式自助 "的经验。目的本研究的目的是：（a）描述如何将原始的 "皇后广场引导式自助疗法"（QGSH）改编为小组疗法；（b）对远程运行 QGSH 治疗小组的前 8 个月进行服务评估。方法我们在 2021 年 5 月 11 日至 2022 年 1 月 31 日的 8 个月后进行了回顾。结果三个小组共治疗了 16 名患者。根据雅洛姆的团体心理治疗框架对我们的成果进行评估，我们发现该团体提供了雅洛姆的 10/11 项治疗因素。患者的满意度很高。讨论我们概述了进一步贬值和发展的计划，包括发展一个独立的小组。结论小组治疗的形式对我们的服务是一个很有前途的补充。

期刊介绍： Counselling and Psychotherapy Research is an innovative international peer-reviewed journal dedicated to linking research with practice. Pluralist in orientation, the journal recognises the value of qualitative, quantitative and mixed methods strategies of inquiry and aims to promote high-quality, ethical research that informs and develops counselling and psychotherapy practice. CPR is a journal of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy, promoting reflexive research strongly linked to practice. The journal has its own website: www.cprjournal.com. The aim of this site is to further develop links between counselling and psychotherapy research and practice by offering accessible information about both the specific contents of each issue of CPR, as well as wider developments in counselling and psychotherapy research. The aims are to ensure that research remains relevant to practice, and for practice to continue to inform research development.
