This article continues to explore some crucial differences between group analysis (as a western approach to group therapy) and the Minia integrative dynamic model (an approach that was developed in Egypt in the last decade). The article re-emphasizes the assumption that certain socio-cultural factors can grossly affect both the theory and practice of group psychotherapy; so, what can work for western therapists/patients is not necessarily supposed to work for eastern therapists/patients. The article also explores the meaning and power of love in both models of group therapy according to different perceptions, understanding and the functioning of love in different cultures
