What happens to us when we’re part of a group – and why can certain people or group dynamics affect us so strongly?

Difficulties with groups, friendships, colleagues and other social relationships are common themes brought into therapy. The Roles Played in Groups Cards, created by Pauline Andrew, provide counsellors, therapists and coaches with a creative way to explore these experiences with clients.

The resource also moves beyond difficult dynamics to explore “Building Your Team” – helping clients identify the resourceful, supportive people they have around them, or might seek to develop in their lives.

As the cards focus on adult relationships and group experiences, they work particularly well alongside the Roles Played in Families Cards, offering an opportunity to explore connections between early family roles and the patterns that may emerge in adult relationships and groups.

What’s included

• 24 dark blue Character Cards - Difficult Group Members
• 18 yellow Me Cards - Who Am I in Groups?
• 12 light blue Resource Cards - Building Your Team
• Label Cards to explore how difficult group members affect the client
• Option Cards exploring possible ways forward once the character cards have been explored
• Detailed guidelines for using the cards in therapeutic practice

What counsellors say

“These cards are such a great tool for anyone wondering what’s going on at work, within friendship groups or in educational settings. They really lift the lid on group dynamics!”

“My client has never liked being in groups, and these cards really helped her explore why.”
