About Group Therapy

Group therapy has a long, proven record as a highly effective and useful form of psychotherapy. It is as helpful as, and in some cases more helpful than, individual therapy, particularly when social support and learning about interpersonal relationships are important goals of therapy. The vast majority of individuals who participate in group therapy benefit from it substantially. Although group therapy is generally highly supportive, you may at times find it stressful.
Many individuals seeking therapy feel isolated and dissatisfied in their particular life situation. They may have difficulties establishing and maintaining close, mutually gratifying, and meaningful relationships with others. Frequently they are interested in learning more about how they relate to others.

Self Development Group 

​In this group, we strive to create an atmosphere of curiosity, safety, openness, and honesty from which members will begin to learn more about themselves and the ways in which they relate to others; learning which may allow each individual to better pursue their goals and find greater satisfaction in relationships. This group may be helpful for individuals facing a range of challenges, seeking to improve their relationships, or seeking a more authentic or satisfying life in general.

​​​Group therapy offers an opportunity to:

• Receive and offer support and feedback
• Improve interpersonal relationships and communication
• Experiment with new interpersonal behaviors
• Talk honestly and directly about feelings
• Gain insight and understanding into one’s own thoughts, feelings, and behaviors by looking at relationship patterns both inside and outside the group
• Gain understanding of other people’s thoughts, feelings, and behaviors
• Improve self-confidence, self-image, and self-esteem
• Undergo personal change inside the group with the expectation of carrying that learning over into one’s outside life
