Vulnerable Patient Group

Background: There is a need for special attention to patients in the transition between adolescent and adult psychiatric services. This study investigates effects of a group therapy on depression, anxiety, self-esteem and personal experiences among the youngest patients in an adult outpatient clinic. Method: Patients between 18 and 25 years participated in a 10-week group treatment based on psychoeducation and cognitive therapy. Outcomes were self-reported and both quantitative and qualitative. Results: Of 35 included patients (equal gender distribution, mean age 21 years), 31 completed treatment. Forty-nine percent were diagnosed with depression and 23 % with anxiety. Depressive symptoms and self-esteem improved after treatment, whereas anxiety symptoms did not. Group participation gave new perspectives on own difficulties and a sense of belonging in a safe setting with people they could relate to.  Conclusion: Group treatment adapted to young adults may be a suitable and feasible treatment intervention for this vulnerable patient group. Keywords: Depression, anxiety, young adults, cognitive therapy, group therapy, users’ experience.

AbstractGroup treatment is an integral part of speech-language pathology (SLP) practice. The majority of SLP literature concerns group treatment provided in outpatient settings. This article describes the goals, procedures, and benefits of providing quality SLP group therapy in the comprehensive inpatient rehabilitation (CIR) setting. Effective CIR groups must be designed with attention to type and severity of communication impairment, as well physical stamina of group members. Group leaders need to target individualized patient goals while creating a challenging, complex, and dynamic group context that supports participation by all group members. Direct patient-to-patient interaction is fostered as much as possible. Peer feedback supports goal acquisition by fellow group members. The rich, complex group context fosters improved insight, initiation, social connectedness, and generalization of communication skills. Group treatment provides a unique type of treatment not easily replicated with individual treatment. SLP group treatment in a CIR is an essential component of an intensive, high-quality program. Continued advocacy for group therapy provision and research into its efficacy and effectiveness are warranted.

Increasing Demand

This was a cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) group for formulation and treatment of low self-esteem, with emphasis on the use of creative approaches (stories, metaphors and experiential exercises) to enhance memory and learning. Evaluation of outcome for 72 clients attending these groups indicates that this is a successful intervention in terms of self-esteem, anxiety and depression. Qualitative feedback has been very positive and there has been a steady and increasing demand in terms of referrals.
