No one else could know how you feel.
No one else gets it. No one in your life seems to understand what it feels like to go through what you’re going through.
So instead of trying to get them to understand, you withdraw. You ignore that dinner invitation and stay home by yourself instead.
You figure if they don’t understand you, they can’t possibly help you.
That’s what makes Group Therapy different.
Group Therapy brings together people of different backgrounds that have experienced a similar event.
Whether it’s the death of a loved one, working through a traumatic event or simply dealing with the stressors of everyday life, there is so much power that comes from a group setting.
Being in the same space as others who have experienced something similar can be life-changing.
What is Group Therapy, though?
Group Therapy can look a lot of different ways. I run closed groups, meaning no one else can join once the group starts. I also ask that folks commit to all eight weeks of the group. This allows the group to form a cohesive bond and really dig into the work together.
Groups typically consist of 6-8 people, all coming together for a similar reason. What brings one person into a group might not be the same as the next person, but having some common ground is essential for the group to run.
Groups last for one and a half hours per week for eight consecutive weeks. Clients must sign a confidentiality agreement before starting, and I ask that whatever we talk about during group sessions stays in group sessions.
It’s time to connect with others!
