I did the empty chair many times. In group I felt very supported when my t was behind me and if I got stuck, he gave me words to say which usually fit (if it didnt fit Id shake my head) and so did other group members. It was a very helpful tool with the group involved. And sometimes another group member was me and I would sit in the empty chair (as the person I was talking to). It did help make my feelings more clear to me.
