Group therapy is a form of therapy where a group of individuals with similar issues or concerns meet regularly with a trained therapist to discuss their problems, share their experiences, and provide support to each other. The therapist facilitates the group and helps members to explore their feelings, behaviors, and relationships with others.
Group therapy can be beneficial for a variety of issues, including anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship difficulties, and trauma. It can provide a safe and supportive environment where individuals can feel heard and validated, and learn from the experiences and perspectives of others.
Group therapy can be conducted in-person or online, and the size of the group can vary. Group therapy can be a cost-effective and efficient way to receive therapy as individuals can benefit from the collective wisdom of the group and the insights gained from the therapist’s guidance.
