Group Therapy

Group Therapy

My group therapy approach is inspired by the pioneering work of Irvin D. Yalom, viewing the therapy group as a microcosm of everyday life. Interpersonal dynamics within the group provide invaluable insights into individual behaviors and relationships. By exploring these connections, participants can uncover blind spots, enhance communication skills, and cultivate a greater sense of interpersonal ease.

Sessions take place in a supportive, unstructured environment, allowing for flexibility and spontaneity. This dynamic fosters resilience and adaptability, encouraging members to navigate life’s challenges together while deepening self-awareness and emotional regulation. We emphasize the importance of community and genuine expression, helping individuals reclaim their capacity for meaningful connections.

The American Psychological Association highlights that group therapy has comparable outcomes to individual therapy in addressing a wide range of mental health concerns. Group work offers the additional advantage of real-time interpersonal feedback, peer support, and a sense of universality — knowing you’re not alone.

Benefits of Group Therapy

Here-and-Now Processing

Our groups utilize here-and-now processing, emphasizing present-moment interactions among members. This approach encourages participants to express immediate thoughts and feelings, enhancing self-awareness and interpersonal understanding. By focusing on the here and now, members can address relational patterns as they occur, leading to meaningful change.
