Abstract
Self Psychology and the Higher Mental Functioning hypothesis emphasize positive aspects of patients' efforts to stabilize defective (unstable) functioning and begin growth.

Clinical examples are presented from psycho-therapy groups that illustrate applications, advantages and problems of the two theoretical approaches.
