For Love of Groups

Metanoia Therapy is currently offering two groups: “Good Enough” Parenting Support group & Caregiver / Teen DBT skills group.
I love group therapy because it can offer such a different perspective to the challenges we are facing in life. I admit, it can be intimidating at first to consider meeting with a bunch of strangers and letting them inside your circle BUT there is such an amazing payoff to conquering this intimidation - connection, support, and finding out you are not alone in this.
There are different types of groups that you can join: process groups, skills groups, education groups, and support groups. Each of these groups has different expectations for your level of contribution and the amount of personal information that is shared within the group.
There are so many benefits of participating in a group:
You are not alone, others with similar problems are willing to support you, and this can be profoundly healing.
Giving and receiving support between group members.
Learning from others and having the ability to help others.
