ABSTRACT
The issues arise on how to encourage them to confront one Another with honest feedback; how to ask for honest feedback and expect to get it; how to practice new behaviors like assertiveness or even some of their lifelong forbidden emotions like anger; or how to get them to become fully integrated personalities that encompass the polite and the not so polite. The intervention is a safe way to start that process, especially for clients who are not comfortable with negative or hostile emotions. The intervention is easy to apply and could be used in various groups at any phase of the group, but I have found it most powerful in the transition from the second to third phase of the psychodynamic process-oriented group. Like any intervention there is always the possibility that there might be a contraindication.
