Group Psychotherapy

People are often apprehensive about group therapy and for good reasons. Sometimes people are registered for groups that do not address their problems due to inadequate screening. Because the demand for mental health services exceeds the supply, groups are often quite large, making it challenging for group facilitators to address individual needs, and depending on the group facilitator’s level of training and experience, they may or may not be equipped to address more complex mental health concerns. Here are the reasons why my groups are different:

1. You will receive a free 60-minute consultation to evaluate whether one of my groups is likely to benefit you. If you were referred to a group by another healthcare provider, the consultation may be shorter because initial screening has already occurred.

2. All groups are facilitated by me. I am a doctoral-level psychologist who has concentrated my career on assessing and treating complex mental health difficulties.

3. Group size will not exceed six people to ensure everyone receives individual attention.

4. All group members will have access to phone coaching between sessions. If you are having difficulty applying something you learned in group, you can call me, and I will help you.
