FAQs: Your Therapy Questions Answered
Group therapy is a form of psychotherapy where one or more therapists work with multiple participants at the same time. It provides a supportive environment where participants share their experiences, offer feedback, and learn from each other under the guidance of a licensed therapist.
Group therapy involves multiple participants working together in a shared space, while individual therapy is one-on-one with a therapist. Group therapy provides peer support, shared insights, and a chance to improve social skills, whereas individual therapy focuses solely on personal issues and tailored guidance.
Group therapy offers several benefits, including:
- Feeling less alone by connecting with others facing similar challenges
- Gaining diverse perspectives and insights
- Practicing communication and conflict resolution skills
- Developing emotional regulation and coping strategies
- More cost-effective than individual therapy
