How it works:

01

The process of group therapy typically begins with an initial assessment, where we will gather information about the group members' backgrounds, current issues, and goals for therapy. We will then work  to establish ground rules, such as confidentiality and active participation, and develop a treatment plan that addresses the specific needs of the group.

02

During group therapy sessions, there will be facilitated discussions and activities that allow group members to share their thoughts, feelings, and experiences with one another. The therapist may use a variety of techniques, such as role-playing, storytelling, and problem-solving exercises, to help group members gain insight into their problems and learn new coping strategies.

03

This type of therapy can last between 50 minutes and a few hours, depending on the subject and the needs of the members of the group.
