FAQs

What happens in a group therapy session?

Each session is guided by a licensed therapist who provides structure and support. Group members are encouraged to share their experiences, listen to others, and practice new coping skills in a safe and supportive environment.

Will I have to share personal details right away?

Not at all. You are encouraged to share at your own pace. Many people find that simply listening at first helps them feel more comfortable before opening up.

How is group therapy different from individual therapy?

While individual therapy focuses on one-on-one support, group therapy offers connection with others who are facing similar struggles. This shared experience helps reduce feelings of isolation while also providing multiple perspectives and feedback.

Is group therapy confidential?

Yes. Just like individual therapy, confidentiality is a top priority. All members agree to respect each other’s privacy, creating a safe and trusting space for open conversation.
