This preliminary report draws attention to an innovative group therapy technique that may be beneficial to couples with sexual and emotional difficulties and that may lend itself to more intensive, effective treatment of shorter duration than traditional modes of marital therapy. The authors caution, however, that it should be attempted only by well-trained therapists with a stable working relationship and only with a cohesive, mutually supportive group.
