Abstract

In the present communication I would like to share some theoretical as well as practical aspects that arose during our group experience because of its valuable contribution to the diagnosis, treatment and the following of the patients.

Four kids, two girls and two boys of eight to nine years, complete the group. They also assist to individual sessions of treatment because of several behavioral problems. Our group experience took place during 12 sessions with a periodicity of one every two weeks.

Group therapy allows the observation of the patient’s interactions with the other members easing a more comprehensive knowledge of his pathology as well as broadening the possibilities of intervention and benefit the monitoring of the process.
