What can I expect during group therapy sessions?
You’ll meet with a therapist and other group members in person or virtually from your home, office, or another location.
Your mental health specialist leads the therapy sessions, but you and other members have a chance to share your thoughts, express feelings, ask questions, or address concerns.
You might learn ways to better manage an addiction, anger, relationship conflicts, or trauma responses. Group therapy may also offer training in social skills, life skills, communication, or stress management.
How long should I attend group therapy?
You meet with your group weekly for about an hour. The mental health benefits linked to group therapy appear after several sessions, and you can continue to meet with your group as long as needed. Many members attend sessions for several weeks or months, and sometimes longer.
You might also complete individual therapy, family therapy, or medication management (medication-assisted treatment) in addition to group counseling sessions. Follow up with the Integrated Health & Wellness Services team to maximize mental health outcomes.
