Ταυτόχρονα, οι σχέσεις με τα άλλα μέλη της ομάδας παρέχουν στο ίδιο το άτομο χρήσιμες πληροφορίες για το πώς σχετίζεται σε όλες τις σημαντικές σχέσεις της ζωής του.

Για εκείνη η ψυχοθεραπεία είναι ένα ταξίδι αυτογνωσίας που έχει ως στόχο τον επαναπροσδιορισμό του ατόμου μέσα στη ζωή του και τη θεραπευτική αλλαγή.

Τέλος, θεωρεί σημαντικό η σχέση θεραπευτή-θεραπευόμενου να διέπεται από άνευ όρων αποδοχή, σεβασμό, εμπιστοσύνη, αυθεντικότητα και ενσυναίσθηση.
