When you were in group last time, wasn't your private therapist also your group therapist, and isn't that how it is now also? Forgive me if I'm mistaken.

If that is the case, couldn't that be a big part of the problem? B/c that makes the others in the group her patients too, which could lead to conflicts with how she views what you say about others in the group (who she actually knows, not just through you), and her perspective on how you are doing in group.

Perhaps if you were in a group that wasn't led by your therapist it would be better. I know that I certainly would never agree to be in a group led by my personal therapist. I don't want to share her and would be less likely to be as honest about my interactions with other patients in group due to their relationship with her.

Or maybe I'm completely wrong and your group is led by someone different. In which case, ignore all of the above!

I'm sorry you're having such a rough time with group.
