The treatment manual is intended to serve more than one purpose. It
is designed to be a research tool, making possible the
standardization and validation of a treatment method. It is also a
highly condensed primer and a practicum, offering a description of
psychoanalytic group therapy which will act as a handbook for the
beginner and as an "aide-memoire" for the more experienced
therapist. Many therapists will have had some experience with
individual patients but wonder how they are to convert that
knowledge into the practicalities of running a group, in which
seven or eight patients are seen simultaneously. For young
practitioners in a National Health Service setting, this can be a
daunting prospect. It is difficult to do group therapy well, yet
when it is done well it provides an invaluable therapeutic medium
for a collection of patients it might be neither possible nor wise
nor even necessary to see in individual treatment. In other words,
there are many patients for whom a group is the treatment of
choice.
