Please, If you can, explain me that

In the intro is written that psychotherapy may be "concucted with groups, including families." But the Family psychotherapy is different from the Group psychotherapy. I tried to edit it but my English is insufficient. Explain me please why I was wrong. Thank you. Chomsky (talk) 14:11, 30 August 2020 (UTC)

In the broad sense of the word a family is still a group of people. It links to both group therapy and family therapy, so the reader shouldn't think that these are the same thing. As it stands, I don't see a problem with the current way it's written.--Megaman en m (talk) 16:14, 30 August 2020 (UTC)

Thank you very much. Chomsky (talk) 07:20, 31 August 2020 (UTC)

Please, allow me to notice you that I did not understand what is "psychotherapy conducted with groups" until I visited the link. The construction "psychotherapy concucted with groups" is hard to understand (especially if the groups are exemplified by "families"). When the article was rewieved at 26 August 2006 it had excellent intro. As well as the Simple English Wikipedia has good intro. And the Britannica.com, too. I can't bear your wrong intro supported by a single source which even appears in contradiction with it. Chomsky (talk) 06:20, 8 September 2020 (UTC)

@Chomsky: It's difficult for me to think of any alternative phrasing that would be more understandable. Did you have something in mind? -- Beland (talk) 16:43, 30 August 2021 (UTC)
