Group Therapy can be beneficial to those seeking a small, supportive environment while they address specific issues such as trauma, stress or anxiety. Often led by one or more clinicians, therapy groups can offer clients support and understanding as an effective method to treat the types of concerns that are commonly experienced. Clients may solely attend group therapy but many attend as a supplement to their ongoing individual therapy.
Groups are held in-person, virtually, or in a hybrid format. Please check the particular group you are interested in for session details.
