Group Therapy Program

Comprehensive Evidence-Based Group Therapy for Lasting Recovery

What Happens in a Group Therapy Program?

In group therapy, a trained therapist facilitates discussions and activities within a small group of individuals who are facing similar challenges. The group members share their thoughts, feelings, and experiences, while actively listening to one another. The therapist provides guidance, and feedback, and introduces therapeutic techniques and activities. Group therapy promotes support, feedback, skill development, and exploration of interpersonal dynamics in a safe environment. It also offers emotional support and a sense of belonging.

Basics of Group Therapy

Group therapy is a form of therapy in which a small group of individuals meets regularly under the guidance of a trained therapist or counselor. Here are the basics of group therapy:

R

Confidentiality and Safety

Group therapy creates a safe and confidential environment where members can openly share their thoughts, feelings, and experiences without fear of judgment or breach of privacy. Trust is fostered among group members, emphasizing the importance of maintaining confidentiality.
R

Shared Experiences and Support

Group therapy offers the opportunity to connect with others facing similar challenges or issues. Sharing experiences within the group can generate a sense of validation, normalization, and empathy. Group members can provide one another with support, understanding, and encouragement, which can significantly contribute to personal growth and healing.
R

Diversity and Universality

Group therapy benefits from the diversity of its members. Different backgrounds, ages, perspectives, and life experiences contribute to a rich and multifaceted environment. While individuals may have unique stories, the shared challenges and emotions often reveal a sense of universality, reminding group members that they are not alone in their struggles.
R

Feedback and Reflection

Group therapy encourages members to provide feedback to one another in a respectful and constructive manner. Through this process, individuals gain different perspectives and insights into their own behaviors, thoughts, and emotions. The group becomes a microcosm of real-life relationships, offering opportunities for interpersonal growth and improved self-awareness.

Group therapy can be a valuable therapeutic approach for various concerns, providing a supportive community, multiple perspectives, personal insights, and skill development. If you’re interested in group therapy, reach out to us today, (877) 716-4464.
