Group Therapy is a therapeutic approach conducted with a group of individuals who face similar situations or challenges. Its goal is to create a supportive environment where participants can share their experiences, thoughts, and emotions—encouraging self-awareness, personal growth, and mutual support.
Key Features of Group Therapy
Structure and Guidance
Group sessions are led by one or more therapists who shape the therapeutic process and ensure a safe and honest setting for discussion.
Shared Experiences
Group members typically face similar issues—such as anxiety, depression, addictions, or difficulties in interpersonal relationships—and they exchange personal experiences and coping strategies.
Interaction and Engagement
Participants are encouraged to interact, express their thoughts, and support each other. This promotes the development of social skills, empathy, and a sense of connection.
Benefits of Group Therapy
