GROUP PSYCHOTHERAPY AND PSYCHODRAMAAbstract
There are thousands of little groups today, spread over the American continent, especially in the U.S.A., practicing what is called "encounter groups," frequently not conducted by professionally trained leaders, but rather by laymen or "hippiephrenic" individuals. They have become part of our therapeutic culture in transition.
