Group Psychotherapy

Let's Work Together

Psychotherapy groups are usually organized around a particular issue. Examples would be process-oriented therapy groups, grief/loss support groups, substance abuse, parenting support groups or mastering anxiety. Group psychotherapy provides an additional level of support and intervention by bringing together people who are working to make changes in similar areas of life.

Group therapy helps people work through problems by interacting with a therapist and a group of individuals with similar struggles. In a safe, confidential setting, each group member can share personal experiences, feelings and issues and receive feedback and support from the rest of the group.

Benefits of Group Psychotherapy

Research clearly demonstrates the effectiveness of group therapy to treat a variety of conditions. Some of the benefits of group therapy include:

• A safe, supportive setting to discuss difficult emotions and experiences

• Less isolation and loneliness when surrounded by others with similar struggles

• Interactions with others quickly brings issues to the surface, allowing them to be resolved under the guidance of a therapist

• Improves self-awareness and motivation to change

• Feedback from peers can be highly influential

• Improves interpersonal and communication skills

• Builds trust and self-esteem

• The ideal setting to practice new skills and behaviors

To gain the maximum benefit of group therapy, individuals must be willing to participate. The more open and honest an individual can be, the more they can get out of the experience.
