Abstract:
The needs of insufficiently treated Turkish patients motivated to offer a group-psychotherapy in cooperation with an interpreter. Only on a trickful way his expenses could be paid by the health insurance. While the plan for such a group was made, it was estimated just as a second-rate escape for such patients. But already during the course of the first group-session a therapeutic concept developed which overcame barriers of language and culture. So this experiment turned out to be an important step for developing suitable therapeutic structures for migrants.
