Group Therapy and Counseling involve a small group working with a therapist to address similar issues. It provides support, diverse perspectives, and helps build social skills while addressing mental health concerns.
What is Group Therapy?
As the name suggests, group therapy provides psychotherapy in a group setting as opposed to a one-on-one setting. It is commonly implemented in cases of anxiety, PTSD or addiction.
How does it work?
Typically, 6-8 individuals meet once or twice a week, for about an hour. After explaining the rules and setting an agenda, the therapist engages the group on the chosen topic.
