Group Therapy
“The best part about being with a group is you don’t have to do everything alone.” – Justin Timberlake
One benefit of group therapy is that it can help decrease a client’s shame and isolation about a problem while offering needed support, both from the therapist and other members of the group (American Psychological Association, 2014).
When To Come In For Group Therapy
It is usually speaking in front of other people (because sharing secrets and problems with complete strangers can be stressful and overwhelming) that often prevents individuals from scheduling that first appointment. At Abaris we offer numerous group therapies to help a variety of concerns and we want you to know that we understand your apprehensiveness and have developed each group so that you feel comfortable with sharing your experiences, assured in the confidentiality of the sessions and relieved that you are not alone in your struggle.
How Can Group Therapy Help?
Education & Connectedness
For many people group therapy can be more powerful than individual therapy. During group therapy there is a very strong educational component and the sessions are built so that everyone helps each other and benefits.
As the therapists educates and offers tools, you are surrounded with those who are going through very similar situations and you find there is a connectedness that offers a unique kind of support and guidance.
