At My Psychiatrist, we believe in the healing power of connection and shared experience. Group therapy creates a supportive environment where individuals can explore emotions, learn from others, and develop healthier ways of coping—all with the guidance of a skilled therapist.
What is Group Therapy?
Group therapy is a form of psychotherapy where a small group of individuals meets regularly to discuss shared concerns, challenges, and goals. Facilitated by a licensed therapist, group sessions offer the chance to process emotions, build skills, and gain perspective in a safe, structured setting.
Benefits of Group Therapy
Group therapy can be just as effective as individual therapy, especially when working through interpersonal issues or emotional challenges. Some key benefits include the sense of shared understanding that comes from hearing others’ stories, the opportunity to learn and practice coping and communication skills, and the sense of community built through mutual encouragement and support. Participants often gain new perspectives and feel less isolated in their struggles.
