Silver Lake Psychology's Guide to Group Therapy

By: Nicole Banks, Director of Operations at Silver Lake Psychology

Group therapy is a great option for those that are looking to improve their life.  Going through the struggles of life with a group of people can be helpful.

Silver Lake Psychology is helping our clients by offering affordable group therapy services.  Group therapy is an important part of your mental health strategy.

Things to consider when starting group therapy

When considering a group therapy session to join, there’s a few things to take into consideration.  Here are the main things you should think about when starting a group:

• Topic

It’s important that you don’t just choose a group to be part of something.  You really want to think about what your goals are in therapy and then choose a group therapy topic that aligns with your goals.

• Time

Making sure that you attend group therapy sessions consistently is important for your overall success.  Make sure that the time that you choose works for you each week. 

• Participate

If you’ve never been in group therapy, you get out of it what you put in.  It’s important to try.  You need to share.  You need to trust the process.  By participating in the group therapy sessions, you can begin to learn from your therapist and other group therapy attendees.

Even if you’re not comfortable starting week one, we want to encourage you.  Groups are a great way to help you heal, understand that you’re not alone in your feelings or actions, and learn new strategies to help you cope with life’s challenges.
