(Editor's note: This is another in a series of especially written articles for McHenry county readers. Joseph Cools is a psychologist on the Family Service and Community Mental Health Center staff. This ar­ ticle is "Copin g-'. Com­ munication Difficulties") Many times when a person seeks help for a problem at a Mental Health center, the treatment recommendation is for group therapy. To many people the thought of group therapy is very scary, at least in part because of some misconceptions that people tend to have about group therapy. It may feel as if group is "second rate" therapy ; that it is suggested because there is no time available for individual therapy. Important to remember is that group therapy, when suggested, is the treatment of choice, not a substitute for "real" therapy. Groups are specifically geared to deal with certain kinds of problems. It has been the therapist's experience that for the problem or problems being presented, group therapy is the best therapy ; that is, the most THE LARGEST INVENTORY OF WATER PUMPS IN THE MIDWEST WE SERVIC ALL BRANDS •J»t Pumps •Sobm«r*ibl« Pump* •All Typ« of Pump Part* •Captlv* Air Tank* M •Watar Flltar* •Softener* •Hydr-o-matlc Sump Pump* •W*ll Drilling •Ideal Sump Pump* •Everything Water N RED JACKET THE HOUSE THAT GOOQ.

Another common miscon­ ception is that groups tend to be very confrontive and painful. In most cases, however, quite the reverse is true. The majority of groups are ex­ tremely supportive and provide an atmosphere irt which problems can be talked about with a greater degree of comfort than in individual therapy. One of the reasons for this is that the individual in group quickly realizes that everyone else in the group has had experiences and feelings similar to his or her own. Some people have the im­ pression that groups are made up of people with very serious problems and the suggestion for group therapy must bean that the therapist considers them to be seriously disturbed. This is not true, as it is the type of problem, not the severity that determines whether group will be effective. Group ap­ pears to be most effective when a person is having "relation­ ship" problems. Inability to communicate, difficulty in forming or sustaining close relationships, a feeling of being uncomfortable in social situations are all relationship problems and usually respond well to group therapy.
