Abstract

Social group work provides a method for enhancing individual psychotherapy of adolescents. Disturbed adolescents are often socially isolated and unable to use normal peer contacts for reality practice and sublimation. The small therapeutic group affords opportunities for mastery of materials and activities and use of the group worker and other members as sounding boards and models for identification. Group work and individual treatment are mutually furthered by collaboration and by the adolescent's selective use of each experience.
