Current and Future Challenges in Group Therapy

This article reviews changes and considers challenges in group therapy since AGPA's 50^th anniversary 25 years ago. The authors acknowledge the many important changes that have occurred in research, theory, and practice in the last two and a half decades, but focus on four topics: treating trauma with cultural sensitivity; the impact of technology on groups; challenges for LGBTQ clients in group; and the future for psychodynamic groups. The authors review the literature and provide recommendations on how to address the challenges.
