    Se presentan los resultados de una investigación que tuvo como objetivos: explorar la utilidad de la terapia grupal para hacer frente a los efectos de las experiencias paranormales y explorar cómo la terapia humanista produce cambios positivos hacia las experiencias anómalo/paranormales. Se les pidió a la muestra (N= 20, rango 22-71 años, M= 45,65, DT= 12,52), 65 % mujeres y 35 % varones, responder un cuestionario autoadministrado de siete preguntas antes y al finalizar su participación en un grupo. La actividad incluyó tres fases: (1) Exposición, (2) Interpretación y (3) Cierre del grupo. Los participantes indicaron que el grupo ayudó a disminuir su malestar emocional (p = ,001), y lograr una comprensión a sus experiencias (p = ,008).
