Psychoeducation rose to prominence in the mid-1980s in Germany, where the psychoeducational model evolved into a program of communication for people with mental health conditions.

Moreover, psychoeducational groups have been shown to reduce the time patients spend in a hospital or residential setting by nearly 50 percent.
