XII Nordic Conference 2025 in Group Psychotherapy
First Hotel Grand, Odense, september 11.-13.
IGA-Aarhus and IGA Copenhagen are pleased to invite you to the XII Nordic Conference in Group Psychotherapy –
and we look forward to welcome you in Odense; the 3’rd largest city in Denmark
“Violation Within and By the Group:
A Group-Analytic Approach to Understanding and Processing”
________
Welcome to this specialised conference for group-analytic professionals, where we explore violations both within and by the group. In group analysis, we do not view violations as isolated incidents but rather as phenomena that can emerge and evolve within the group’s dynamics. The group can be both the context where violations occur and, simultaneously, the space where processing and healing can take place.
During the conference, we will delve into the complex relationships and group processes that lead to violations and how group-analytic treatment can offer an in-depth understanding of these processes. We will examine how violations within a group context not only affect those directly involved but the group as a whole, as well as how violations can occur by the group as a system – in institutional, social, or organisational settings.
What can you expect?
________
- Professional presentations from experienced group analysts and researchers who will unfold the group processes where violations can arise and how best to address them.
- Panel discussions on the conference theme, featuring speakers and a large group, as well as specific case studies where violations have occurred within and by the group, and how group-analytic therapy can contribute to understanding and healing.
- Workshops where participants can gain hands-on experience with group-analytic methods to address issues of violation in both therapeutic and organisational groups.
This conference is tailored to practitioners working with group analysis who wish to expand their tools and knowledge in managing violations. Together, we will explore how groups can be arenas for violation while also holding the key to creating profound transformation and reconciliation.
We look forward to gathering a community of professionals eager to immerse themselves in how we, through group-analytic treatment, can support groups in rebuilding trust, processing violations, and fostering new, healthier dynamics.
