Very few trainees have experience in group psychotherapy. I describe my experience of co-facilitating a group for pre-adolescents who were being bullied. This proved a valuable learning experience as part of a multidisciplinary team, and increased my understanding of how groups function and the particular problems involved in running a group for children.
