What is Group Therapy?

Group therapy aims to help clients:

• Build a support network by connecting with others facing similar challenges, creating a sense of community and mutual support.
• Improve communication skills in a safe space where clients can practice and enhance their interpersonal skills.
• Gain different perspectives from hearing others' experiences and viewpoints, offering new insights and approaches to their own issues.
• Develop coping strategies through shared experiences and therapist guidance, learning effective mechanisms for managing challenges.
• Increase self-awareness through group discussions and feedback, helping clients gain a deeper understanding of themselves.
• Foster accountability and motivation by committing to goals and receiving encouragement from group members.

6. Enhanced Coping Skills: Clients learn various coping strategies from both the therapist and peers, equipping them with effective tools to manage their challenges.
