We describe a series of groups run for mothers who were separated and who had initially presented with concerns about their children or their parenting. We discuss our systemic approach to groupwork and examine the process of change, using transcripts from the group sessions and feedback from the women. Using a systemic framework in groupwork makes it possible to broaden the context and focus of discussion to include relationships, premises and cultural beliefs. A group provides a context in which multi-perspectives can be elicited and affirmed, and group members can act as 'reflecting teams' for each other. Systemic groups can offer women in the process of separation emotional support, a sense of commonality of issues to be faced, and new and more enabling perspectives on their situations.

“…Otherwise she might not trust me in the future.". During such individual sessions the therapist continuously makes the absent partner become present through a variety of questions (Jenkins & Asen, 1992): "If your partner was present here and heard what you had to say what do you think might his response be? And what you say to that?…”
