| dc.description.abstract | In this paper we argue that work with groups in forensic settings highlights key elements of the relational processes at the Outerface' of the group, as well as within the group. Drawing on Bion's idea of containment we explore the triadic aspects that are fundamental to group and systems work and examine the specific quality of attention that this requires of the group therapist/analyst.
