What Is Group Therapy?
It is a form of psychotherapy in which a group of people come together to work on issues or concerns. Counseling in a group setting can be used to treat a variety of mental health issues, including depression, anxiety, trauma, and grief. It can also help children and teens develop social skills, build self-esteem, and learn problem-solving skills.
Group therapy sessions typically last between one and two hours and involve up to 10 people. The group is led by a licensed therapist who facilitates discussions and helps keep the group focused. Therapy sessions are typically held at a specified time and location, such as a counseling center or therapist’s office.
