Group therapy is a type of psychotherapy that involves a therapist, psychologist, or an addiction professional experienced in group therapy who leads a therapy session with a group of individuals who are typically struggling with similar difficulties. Group therapy in Schenectady can take place in a rehab facility, an office, a church, or similar setting where this type of meeting can occur without distraction. Group therapy is typically a very important component of addiction rehabilitation.
If a person is receiving treatment for drug or alcohol addiction, group therapy and individual therapy, when combined, can provide healing in several ways. Group therapy can help an individual in recovery feel like they are not alone and have support for their problems, troubles, etc. Group therapy can also help someone overcome social anxiety as well, since it can take a lot for an individual to open up about personal issues to people they really don't know very well. Once the shyness has faded, clients in group therapy achieve confidence and camaraderie with people who are facing similar problems. And even more so, they can share in one another's progress and help each other make the positive changes they should make to recover by being involved in a robust support system.
