FIND YOUR PLACE TO BELONG

Why Group?

Group therapy can take many forms. Whatever form it takes, you will benefit from the healing power that comes from a group of people gathering together.

Is Group Therapy Enough?

Some people attend a therapy group in addition to individual therapy. We find that, especially with our DBT skills groups, this is a necessary combo. You get the skills information and group dynamics support from the group space while getting more individualized care and a space to process in individual therapy. However, depending on what you are seeking treatment for, group or individual therapy may be enough on its own. If you are stalled in individual therapy and need a ‘jump start,’ then a process-type group could be a good option. If you are on a waitlist for a specific individual provider and need support sooner, a support or process group could be a great holding space for you until you can start individual treatment. The possibilities are endless.

If you’ve been curious about therapy groups, or have been in therapy for a long time and you’re not seeing the results that you’d like to see, groups may be the solution.

How the Groups Work

We run a number of groups concurrently depending on the needs of our clients. These sessions are weekly or every other week and generally run for 8 – 25 weeks. Each group is small, with only up to 8 participants.

Using a combination of sharing, learning, and skill building you can move through and find a way to live your life fully.

Group therapy reminds you that you aren’t alone, and you don’t have to heal and grow alone.

Women's Interpersonal Process Group

Why are my relationships continually disappointing & unsatisfying?

Relationship patterns often develop early in our lives and continue to repeat themselves until we pause to notice what drives those patterns & uncover ways to shift them. This way of relating may have kept you safe in childhood but is no longer serving you as an adult. In this process group, you will be able to identify relational strengths, build on them, relational challenges & heal them.
