As you're saying, as long as there are any holdouts within the group, successful long-term or short-term integration isn't likely.
Perhaps the group might examine and discuss some of the reasons they want to integrate.
spookshow_girl is absolutely right about the communication, they have to be able to explain it to the one holdout in terms that she will understand. They will need to convince her that integration is to her personal advantage.
A therapist is likely to tell the group that they are not really separate persons, but that they are all [body name] in different, perhaps mythologised aspects. Do they think of themselves this way?
