摘要

在我之前在GROUP上的文章“21世纪黎明的团体阴影”(Nitsun, 2000)中,我注意到本世纪末英国团体心理治疗的矛盾地位。一方面,在二十世纪的最后几十年里,团体方法在公共和私人服务中的应用明显增加。另一方面,人们对团体心理治疗本身作为一种强大的治疗形式的认识有限,它有自己的理论渊源和培训要求。团体服务的发展大多是由效率和权宜之计的概念推动的,而不是对团体心理治疗的具体价值的欣赏。在我的文章发表15年后,我相信这个悖论在很大程度上仍然存在;事实上,它可能已经加深了。团体方法在英国的服务中已经激增,但仍然很少考虑到实践的完整性,其理论基础,特别是对训练有素的团体从业人员的需求。在写英国的情况时,这些描述与来自北美的非正式评论相吻合,同样强调了对团体心理治疗学科关键方面的忽视,包括为许多管理团体的从业者建立一致和健全的培训框架的问题。在我最近出版的书《超越反群体》(Nitsun, 2015)中,我进一步阐述了这些观点。在题为“边缘的团体心理治疗”的一章中,我描述了英国更广泛的专业心理健康社区对团体心理治疗的矛盾心理,以及给予团体治疗的脆弱地位。

Group Psychotherapy on the Edge: The View From the United Kingdom
In my previous article in GROUP, “The Shadow of the Group in the Dawn of the 21st Century” (Nitsun, 2000), I noted the paradoxical status of group psychotherapy in the United Kingdom at the century’s end. On one hand, the application of group methods in public and private services had visibly increased in the last few decades of the twentieth century. On the other, there was limited recognition of group psychotherapy as a powerful form of therapy in its own right, with its own theoretical lineage and training requirements. Much of the development in group services was fueled by notions of efficiency and expediency rather than by an appreciation of the specific value of group psychotherapy. Fifteen years after my article was published, I believe the paradox still largely exists; in fact, it may have deepened. Group methods have proliferated in services in the United Kingdom, but there remains little regard for the integrity of the practice, its theoretical underpinnings, and, in particular, the need for adequately trained group practitioners. While writing about the situation in the United Kingdom, these descriptions tally with informal commentaries from North America, similarly highlighting the disregard for key aspects of the discipline of group psychotherapy, including the problem of establishing a consistent and robust training framework for the many practitioners running groups. I take these points further in my recently published book, Beyond the Anti-group (Nitsun, 2015). In a chapter titled “Group Psychotherapy on the Edge,” I describe the ambivalence about group psychotherapy in the wider professional mental health community in the United Kingdom and the fragile status accorded group therapy.
