Group therapy with children of Holocaust survivors is known to be effective in breaking the conspiracy of silence that is characteristic of many families in which one or both parents are Holocaust survivors. Therefore, therapeutic groups were offered at "Amcha," the Israeli Center for Psychosocial Support of Survivors of the Holocaust and the Second Generation. Initial enthusiasm was great, but actual commitment to participate on a regular basis was surprisingly low. Very few groups got off the ground. We therefore devised a framework of monthly open groups. This article presents our rationale for an open group for this population and for having three facilitators, a description of how these groups actually function, a discussion of advantages and shortcomings, and a summary of our findings.
众所周知，针对大屠杀幸存者子女的团体治疗，对于打破许多父母一方或双方是大屠杀幸存者的家庭所特有的沉默共谋是有效的。因此，以色列大屠杀及第二代幸存者心理社会支持中心“Amcha”提供了治疗团体。最初的热情很高，但实际定期参与的意愿却出奇地低。很少有团体能够开展起来。因此，我们设计了每月开放团体的框架。本文阐述了为这一人群设立开放团体并配备三名 facilitators 的理由，描述了这些团体的实际运作方式，讨论了其优缺点，并总结了我们的发现。
