These structured sessions provide a supportive environment where individuals can learn new skills, gain insights, and find encouragement from peers who understand what they are going through.

What is Group Therapy?
Group therapy, as part of our educational series, involves one or more therapists leading a group of individuals who are working through similar issues. Participants benefit from both the guidance of the therapist and the shared experiences of their peers. This approach can be particularly beneficial for those who feel isolated in their struggles or are seeking a community of support.
Our group therapy sessions are designed to provide a safe and confidential space where participants can openly discuss their feelings, learn coping strategies, and build relationships with others who understand their experiences. These sessions often focus on skill-building, emotional processing, and personal growth, all within the framework of a structured educational series.
