Group Therapy

Group therapy is an effective complement to individual therapy. It has been shown to boost serotonin, oxytocin, and other feel good chemicals in the body as well as provide a space for you to realize that you are NOT ALONE.

4 Benefits of Group Therapy
Aside from its equal effectiveness as a therapy treatment, there are many other benefits to group therapy for you to consider. A few notable ones include:

01

Provides Normalization

When someone attends a workshop, group, or psychoeducational course they will often express the surprising realization that they didn't know that others feel and think similarly to them. People learn that they are not the only ones, and that can be powerful.  Whether it is a struggle in relationships, feeling nervous about making friends in a new city, or experience something something else; the validation that you are not alone can feel very healing.   You will feel an immediate sense of relief.

02

Provides Support

A group experience is a great place to get inspiration, ideas for new ways to address or see a problem you are having, or get feedback about something in your life. Let's say, for example, that you share about a conflict you had with your partner,  the group members can see things in a way that you don't. You have access to  a wider range of perspectives on your situation, and that can help you deal with your problems better.”  

03

More Affordable

Just because it costs less, doesn't mean it is less effective.  Instead of paying $140-200 for individual therapy, you may expect to pay $40-70 per group session.  The facilitator may not be giving you their undivided attention, but you get the benefit of hearing and learning from the other participants.  This can be even more beneficial in so many ways.

04

Beat Isolation

Many of us has been severely isolated in the past two years. Groups can be a way to re-integrate back into social situations and get comfortable with socializing.  Additionally, they can be a way to practice socializing in a safe container.  Our society is so transient nowadays, with so many people moving for a new job or better quality of life.  

As adults, it can be challenging to meet new people, especially since more people are working from home.  In a new city, it can feel daunting to get out and make friends.  A group setting provides to space to get to know each other and make new connections.

The following information is provided as a guide to ensure that you get the most out of the group experience.


Commit to the Process. Have you ever heard the phrase "It works if you work it?"  This is so true.  Commit to attending a certain number of groups and be open to what unfolds as you engage and get to know the other group members. The more you talk, share, and contribute; the more you will get out of the process. 


Share. Your experiences might be meaningful to someone else, and you'll find that helping others helps you, too. Refrain from giving advice or problem-solving for your peers.  What you CAN do is share what has worked or hasn't worked for you.  Sharing your own experiences will provide inspiration and alternatives to other group members. You never know if what you share might be the thing that inspires a person to make a major shift in their life. Speak up!


Bring a notebook or journal. There may be little nuggets that you hear from the facilitator or someone else that you want to remember.  You may  participate in a guided meditation experience where you gain a new insight, but if you don't write it down right after you may forget it when you are out of that context. 


Most of our workshops are held in The Treehouse, what we call the space in the photo above.  It is a special room at the top of our Denver Square house where you will feel comfortable and at home to show up and participate in the process.
