Group Therapy - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - East Waterford, PA.

Group therapy is a form of psychotherapy that consists of a psychologist, therapist, or certified addiction professional trained in group therapy who directs a therapy session with a group of people who are typically struggling with similar challenges. Group therapy in East Waterford can take place in a rehabilitation center, an office, a church, or similar setting where the meeting can occur without distraction. Group therapy is often a very important component of addiction rehab.

If a person is receiving treatment for substance abuse and addiction, group therapy and individual therapy, when done together, can provide recovery in various ways. Group therapy can help the person in recovery feel like they are not alone with their frustrations, troubles, challenges, etc. Group therapy can also help people overcome social barriers and anxiety as well, because it can be challenging for the person to be open about personal problems to people they really don't know very well. Once the shyness has lifted, people in group therapy achieve confidence and camaraderie with others who are working through similar issues. And even more so, they can share in each other's personal improvements and help each other make the positive changes they must make to recover by being involved in a strong support system.
