Group Therapy
Group therapy is when several people come together to participate in therapy for a shared reason and the session itself is conducted by a therapist knowledgeable in that area. Why talk with strangers? We know therapy with a group of people can seem...uncomfortable but group therapy has a lot of benefits. Group therapy is more affordable than other forms of therapy, offers a camaraderie/ validation in your experience, accountability from peers, and a shorter commitment. There are several types of groups but here at Psychcicle we offer two types: Processing groups and Directed Groups. Processing groups are meant for just that: processing day to day experiences and the emotions/ behaviors that arise from them.
Processing groups are ongoing and you can drop in for one session or become regular. Though a therapist is there conducting the group, processing groups are a lot less structured than directed groups as they have an overarching topic but each group is unique and often driven by the difficulties presented by the clients that attended that day.
Direct groups only run for a month at a time (4 sessions with 1 session per week) and once they have begun you cannot join until a new group begins the following month. This is because directed groups are structed and the therapist is actually teaching everyone a specific thing about a specific topic. Each day of the group tackles a new thing about the specific topic, and by the end you should be more knowledgeable about the topic and how to apply it to/how it impacts your life.
