Zusammenfassung: Taras Levin berichtet in diesem Gespräch über den Beginn des Krieges in der Ukraine, die Situation der Menschen, seine persönliche wie auch berufliche Situation. Seit Beginn des Krieges organisiert die Association of Psychoanalytic Psychotherapists in Ukraine (APPU) regelmäßig eine gut funktionierende Unterstützung durch Supervisionen für die therapeutischen Fachkräfte im Sandwich-Modell, dass vor allem von Kolleg:innen aus Israel (Robi Friedman) online durchgeführt wird. Taras Levin betont, dass die gruppenanalytischen Gruppen während des Krieges sehr gut funktionieren, denn sie gebenden Teilnehmenden Halt, Verständnis und Unterstützung. Im März 2024 fand eine große internationale online Konferenz mit dem Titel »Gedanken und Träume« statt, an der ukrainische, wie auch internationale Kolleg:innen teilnahmen.
Schlüsselwörter: Krieg in der Ukraine, Supervision für therapeutische Fachkräfte im Krieg, das Sandwich-Modell, Gruppenanalyse im Krieg, Online-Konferenz»Gedanken und Träume« (Thoughts and Dreams)
In this article, I explore the common resistances to online group analysis and group therapy and bring arguments to support the use of online settings for analytic groups. The arguments are based on theoretical, practical, experimental and experiential perspectives. Online groups are not supposed to replace in-person meetings and he article advocates an integrative model that benefits from both the online and in-person options. A comparison is made between the early arguments by individual psychoanalysts against group analysis and current arguments against online group analysis. Perhaps such resistance shows there is nothing new under the sun.
Group Analysis outlines how clinical group analysis can re-establish itself as a leading paradigm for group psychotherapy. Group Analysis: A Modern Synthesis will be essential reading for all group psychotherapists in practice and in training. It will also appeal to students of group analytic psychotherapy.

Focused Group Analytic Psychotherapy. An Integration of Clinical Experience and Research
Steinar Lorentzen, University of Oslo, Norway
This practical text lays out a new form of focused, time- limited group analytic psychotherapy, built on new and existing research, and integrating clinical experience from across the field.
Presented in three parts, Focused Group Analytic Psychotherapy clearly introduces the therapeutic approach, fully explores all the elements involved, from considering suitable patients to composing the group and the role of the therapist, and provides an in-depth examination of clinical quality assurance, research and the integration of supervision. Peppered with examples and vignettes from carefully designed research by the author and others, the chapters demonstrate how this approach can be used in group therapy with patients facing specific psychological problems, symptomatic distress and/or a problematic relationship to self or others.
