Group therapy is different from individual therapy in a number of ways. The most obvious difference is the number of participants. Originally, this form of therapy was started in institutions as a cost-saving approach when limited psychologists were available. What are the two general ways of categorizing group therapy?
  1. Time limits and group focus
  2. Diagnosis and gender
  3. Environmental setting and coverage
  4. Psychologist driven and client driven
Explanation
Answer - A - The term “time limited groups” does not refer to the length of each session, but the duration of meetings or weeks the session will run. They have a distinct beginning, middle, and end, with no addition of members once starting. Focus groups are more general with goals related to improving life situations in the area of interpersonal relationships. They tend to be open-ended and participants can join at any time.
