Balint Groups currently serve as a core training modality for professionalism, and are used in training programs in medical, psychological, and caring professions.
Balint groups help clinicians:
- Recognize they are not alone in having challenging interactions with patients
- Develop increased understanding and empathy for patients
- Explore how feelings and thoughts affect the clinician-patient relationship
- Expand their capacity and repertoire for handling difficult situations with patients
