It is known that the group leader has an important role and power in the therapeutically effective execution of the process in group counseling. The common sharing of this power with another leader is explained in the literature by the concept of co-leadership. Considering the nature of the counseling process, it is seen that working with the co-leader in the group brings various advantages and risks. That is why it is important for professionals who want to be involved in a similar process to describe the co-leaders’ place in the consultation process, role sharing with the group leader, and the relationship of leaders with each other. In this direction, the aim of the article is to examine the place of the co-leadership in group counseling process in the literature and conceptualize it for practitioners.
