The 12th Curative Factor: Love as an Agent of Healing in Group Psychotherapy.
Bemak, Fred; Epp, Lawrence R.
Journal for Specialists in Group Work, v21 n2 p118-27 May 1996
Proposes love as a curative factor in group psychotherapy. Transference within a group may originate with needs and desires for love. By unmasking transference, subsequent healing may arise from a process of mourning in which group members recognize how their projection of past love onto other group members and onto the psychotherapist is reenacted in current relationships.
