The Role of Narcissism in Group Psychotherapy

Raymond Battegay

University of Basel, Switzerland, battegay{at}bluewin.ch

This article analyzes five phases in the group process in which narcissism may, also on an archaic basis, be seen to be present, and its effect both on the individuals and the group process, as well as towards the conductor. The author also refers to the tasks of the therapist in respect of this narcissism, as it affects the individual, the other group members, and the group-as-a-whole.

Key Words: narcissism • group process • individuals • group development • archaic level of group relations
