Compare and contrast the three group treatment techniques presented in the text

What will be an ideal response?


Group therapy
Counseling several individuals together in a group session. The support of the group is often valuable to individuals in the group, and individuals derive hope from other members of the group who have survived similar experiences. Another advantage of group therapy is that a group can often solve a problem more effectively than an individual.

Guided group interaction (GGI)
Through group interactions, a delinquent can acknowledge and solve personal problems with support from other group members.

Milieu therapy
All aspects of the environment are part of the treatment, and meaningful change, increased growth, and satisfactory adjustment are encouraged.
