Group Therapy Information ~ FAQ's about the Group Program ~ ~ Groups Programs ~ Group therapy provides you with the opportunity to address your current concerns, to identify with others experiencing similar concerns, to increase your self-awareness by identifying life themes interfering with your growth, to become more sensitive to the needs of others, and to learn to respect individual differences as you learn to affirm your own uniqueness. Group therapy can be an effective way of addressing various concerns. In fact, for some concerns, group therapy can be a more effective method of addressing issues than individual therapy. Group can also be a helpful next step to people who are transitioning out of individual therapy and would like some continued support. Groups generally consist of 5-8 group members, plus one or two professional group leaders. Groups can be single- or mixed-gender. They can be centered around a specific issue or concern, or can be open to people with a variety of concerns.
