Abstract
The current research aimed to identify areas of recovery specific to Group Analytic Psychotherapy (GAT) to facilitate the development of a suitable patient reported outcome measure (PROM) for this therapeutic modality.Two focus groups comprising respectively of four group analytic therapists or four service users were asked about components of recovery that they felt were specific to receiving GAT. Thematic Analysis (as described by Braun and Clarke, 2006) was employed to explore their views. Three overarching themes emerged from these groups: improvement in intrapsychic and interpsychic relationships; improvement in quality of life; improvement in functionality and symptom reduction. A conceptual model emerged with regards to how those themes could inform the development on a GAT specific patient reported outcome measure.
