Occasionally, on an as-needed basis, session length or scheduling may vary. I only see people on weekends on an emergency basis. I am also open to providing services by ICQ or email, although I believe that phone therapy would generally be more effective. I believe that specialized therapy groups are often more effective than individual therapy.
Specialized groups offer support from others who share similar experiences and problems.
Groups provide the opportunity to grow through helping one another. On a practical level, members of specialized therapy groups tend to do therapeutic homework more regularly, and thereby tend to make progress more rapidly. For some people, groups become a source of important friendships. Perhaps you may already have been in a therapy or support group before, and perhaps you have felt lost, unable to participate or dominated by more outgoing group members. But imagine how different things are in a group made up of people who are socially anxious, and with a structured format designed to help members feel more comfortable participating.
