Nurse-facilitated, long-term group intervention provides a healing environment for adult survivors of incest. In this article, the healing journey of the group process is discussed as two clinical specialist nurse facilitators share their experiences of facilitating long-term incest groups for the past 5 years at a nurse-managed center for practice in the college of nursing at a large Midwestern university. The group intervention, which consists of 51 sessions 11/2 hours in length, is discussed in depth. The three phases of the group and the tasks of each are developed in detail in relation to the mind-body-spirit healing that occurs. Use of clinical vignettes elaborates the group experiences and the healing evolution of the group members.
