    What You can Gain from a Therapy Group

    Groups therapy and support groups can facilitate deep change and healing. Each group member can fully experience themselves both as an individual and in a relationship with others. In the group energy, you will uncover deeper levels of consciousness, feeling and energy. You will have an opportunity to reveal yourself, express feelings, open muscular blocks that inhibit your life force, take risks and be in a supportive group environment.

    Group Therapy or the group setting provides an opportunity to see your distortions, receive and give support from other group members, feel your own blocks to loving, and learn new ways of connecting and relating. You could also expect to feel improved vitality, energy and deeper capacity for intimacy and commitment. Groups give you the opportunity to see how you affect others, to experiment with new behaviour, and to get feedback on your behaviour. One of the great aspects of the group is to normalise your experiences. You find out that others share parts of ourselves that you have feared and felt shamed around.

    Group Therapy is invaluable for those seeking an enhanced medium to further their evolutionary journey. The safe and supportive group environment where all members are committed to expressing truth and working through their issues offers a profound and rewarding opportunity for connection, sharing, and deep and long-lasting change. Group members will learn and grow not only from their own work but from each other.

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

    What are the three types of group therapy?

    • Psychoeducational Groups – Focus on teaching coping skills and providing information about mental health conditions.
    • Support Groups – Provide emotional support and shared experiences for people facing similar challenges (e.g., grief, addiction, chronic illness).
    • Process-Oriented Groups – Focus on exploring emotions, relationships, and interpersonal dynamics in a therapeutic setting.

    One potential drawback of group therapy is reduced individual attention, as a therapist divides their time among multiple participants. Other challenges include privacy concerns, difficulty opening up in front of others, and the possibility that group dynamics may not always be positive for everyone.

    Group therapy is beneficial for individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, grief, and relationship issues. It works well for those who gain comfort and insight from shared experiences and peer support.

    Yes, group therapy remains a widely used and effective form of treatment. Many mental health professionals incorporate it into their practice, and support groups are commonly available for specific concerns such as substance use, bereavement, and PTSD. Online group therapy has also become increasingly popular.

    An example is Cognitive Behavioural Group Therapy (CBGT) for anxiety disorders, where participants learn coping strategies together. Another example is 12-step programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), which provide peer support and accountability for individuals recovering from addiction.

    Yes, group therapy can be highly effective for social anxiety, as it provides a safe and structured environment to practice social skills, build confidence, and receive support from others facing similar challenges. Exposure-based group therapy can help individuals gradually overcome fears of social interactions.

    Group therapy can be a great option for many people, offering peer support, diverse perspectives, and shared healing experiences. However, it may not be suitable for those who require intensive one-on-one therapy or struggle with severe social discomfort. The effectiveness depends on personal preferences, the therapist’s expertise, and the group dynamic.
