title: ["Parent centered" group work as a possibility in parent counseling in child psychotherapy].
abstract: Neurotic disturbances in children can be largely explained by pathogenic attitudes of the parents. Disappointment, guilt and helplessness are neutralised or denied by a multitude of defence mechanisms. The advisory service for parents is concerned with the task to dissolve these defence mechanism and to relieve the disturbed parents-child relations. According to the authors' opinion, parents can arrive at a "child-centred" attitude when the therapist, too, is experienced in his attitude as "child-and-parents-centred". In the group work with parents, a combination of talk groups with "supplementary methods" after Brocher and training groups according to the "defeatless method of conflict overcoming" after Gordon has proved to be suitable. Practical approach and experiences are described.
