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 three types: Processing groups and Psychoeducation Groups

​

​

Pyschoeducation Groups:

  • Can be 1 day or a month long depending on topic

  • Structured

  • Clients are taught a specific topic then have open discussions

  • Goal is to be more knowledgeable about the topic and how to apply it to/how it impacts your life.
