dc.description.abstract | Sexuality and gender are, usually, intersubjective in nature. The existential-phenomenological approach is therefore perhaps especially well-suited to address issues relating to these rich and complex facets of human nature; and within this approach the intersubjectivity of group psychotherapy would seem especially well-suited to the task. But what is the existential-phenomenological practitioner who wishes to run a group actually to do? First, I'll endeavour to ground this chapter in a little of the pragmatics of the contemporary clinical approach within the NHS, returning to the 'how to' of actually running the group under 'group administration' later on. I will explore what little existential-phenomenological literature there is on running groups, before turning to the issues of sexuality within existential-phenomenological groups.
