Abstract
For a variety of reasons, women may find the middle years a difficult time and their health and well-being may suffer as a result. Some are isolated and have no one to share their concerns with and this may make the situation worse. The purpose of this paper is to show how a theme-centred, feminist groupwork approach can be an effective form of intervention for these women. Such an approach provides the opportunity to bring women together to share their experiences and work collectively and constructively on common issues of midlife.
