Therapy frequently ends with a greater sense of personal freedom to make wise choices for oneself in one's community. The DGAP clinicians collectively have over 50 years experience in studying and running psychotherapy groups. Throughout these many groups, people have consistently made positive enduring changes in their lives. There is also a great deal of research that has shown that psychotherapy is effective and that group psychotherapy is as effective as individual psychotherapy. Those seeking psychotherapy have valid concerns about their privacy.
Therapy groups develop a sense of trust that ensures members' commitment to one another's privacy.
By focusing on group therapy, we have found a way to bring our years of experience together to offer an affordable in-depth therapy option. Group is more and less than individual therapy. Not all individuals are ready for group analytic psychotherapy. When group is not the treatment of choice, individual psychotherapy, psychoanalysis, couples and family therapy, medication or referral to our broad professional network is available. Group members tend to work in group for 1 to 3 years.
