Rationale: The core of interactional group therapy is the here-and-now. According to Yalom (2005), the here-and-now work of the interactional group therapist occurs on two levels: focusing attention on each member's feelings toward other group members, the therapists, and the group and illuminating the process (the relationship implications of interpersonal transactions). Objective family burden refers to the impact on the family of a person with mental illness. The here-and-now is an aspect of interactional group therapy.
