What is group therapy?

Group therapy is a form of psychotherapy that involves one or more therapists working with a small group of individuals who share similar concerns or issues. Group therapy can be beneficial for a wide range of mental health issues and challenges and generally has a topic or focus. Groups can be skills based or process oriented, or incorporate both. Groups can take place in-person or virtually, are generally 60+ minutes in length, and are either long-term/ongoing or a pre-determined amount of sessions. Although not always mandatory, group therapy can be a valuable tool for individuals who are already engaged in individual treatment, given the additional support and community offered by a group.

What are the benefits of group therapy?

Group therapy can offer several benefits including:

Universality: Group therapy can help individuals feel less alone in their struggles, and provide them with a supportive community of individuals who understand what they are going through.

Increased self-awareness: Group therapy can help individuals gain a greater understanding of their own thoughts, feelings, and behaviors by receiving feedback and hearing others' perspectives and experiences.

Cost-effectiveness: Group therapy is an affordable option as the cost is shared among the group members.
