Promoting Social Change

/in /by

Group therapy focuses on individual growth and change, yet its impact can often be seen on a larger scale. For example, in the United States, substance abuse is a significant social issue. Individuals dealing with substance abuse often experience difficulties in maintaining interpersonal relationships and developing their potential, both of which limit their ability to contribute positively to society. Increases in crime, incarceration, and medical costs for overdoses and treatment are a few examples of ways in which communities are directly impacted by the actions of individuals with substance abuse problems. While group therapy is generally thought of as being an individual endeavor, its benefits may create a ripple effect that positively impacts the larger society.

For this Discussion, think about how group therapy might be used to promote social change.

With these thoughts in mind and using these headings

Provide a brief explanation of how you might use group therapy to promote social change. Provide examples to support your response.
