Abstract: Narrative theory provides a useful framework for brief group treatment of persons in crisis because it proposes that understanding of experience is gained through social discourse. Groups offer persons in crisis a new context for attributing meaning to critical events. This article presents a discussion of literature on brief group treatment and of elements of narrative theory and a description of clinical application of brief narrative group treatment in a community mental health center.
