Learn moreAbout Group Therapy
Group therapy is a form of psychological treatment that involves a small group of individuals working together with a trained mental health professional. The group setting provides a supportive environment for participants to share their experiences, thoughts, and feelings, while learning from the insights and perspectives of others.
Group therapy can be helpful for individuals dealing with various issues, such as mental health disorders, grief, or relationship difficulties.
In group therapy, the therapist facilitates discussions that encourage self-exploration, emotional expression, and interpersonal learning. Participants can benefit from the collective wisdom, empathy, and support of their peers, while also gaining a deeper understanding of their own patterns and behaviors. By observing and interacting with others facing similar struggles, individuals can learn new strategies for managing their problems and gain a sense of belonging and connection.
Looking for one-on-one support instead? Our Santa Barbara therapists also offer individual therapy, couples therapy, EMDR, and child and family therapy, in person and by telehealth. Meet our clinicians.
