ABSTRACT

This chapter discusses the essential value of verbal formulation and articulate communication for the final conclusion of the therapeutic process. The W. R. Bion's approach is essentially related or possibly identical, as far as the group analytic situation goes. No experienced Psychotherapist, who is at the same time critical as to the evaluation of therapeutic results, can possibly overlook the therapeutic effects of group therapy in all its varieties. There is no doubt that they can stand any comparison with all other forms of Psychotherapy, on grounds of such objectivity as it might be possible to establish. Group Analysis can be supplemented by individual Analysis, or vice versa, and that it can serve as preparation for such, or as a help for working things through afterwards. he world of Reality, the Body and the Community, are the co-ordinates of all Therapy.
