According to the consensus, what is the benefit of having 8-10 members in a therapy group?

Allows detailed individual focus
Allows room for non-attendance and client turnover
Maximizes cost-efficiency of sessions
Reduces noise levels during sessions

The correct answer is: Allows room for non-attendance and client turnover

Having 8-10 members in a therapy group is beneficial because this size strikes a balance between fostering meaningful interactions among participants while still providing enough flexibility to accommodate non-attendance and client turnover. In a smaller group, each member may struggle to feel included or gain adequate support, while a larger group may dilute individual attention and participation. With 8-10 members, the group can sustain its dynamics even if some members are unable to attend a session. This capacity allows for a more consistent experience for remaining members and helps the group maintain a sense of cohesion and support over time, even in the face of changes in membership. Thus, this size is particularly effective in group therapy settings where participation can vary.
