Group Therapy creates the opportunity to replace limiting patterns of social interaction with new adaptive ways of behaving with other people. People who are experiencing interpersonal difficulties are good candidates for group therapy. Some people decide to join a group because they have experienced a recent loss or trauma, or because they feel overwhelmed by stress. In general, productive group members are people who are willing to risk sharing their feelings and to accept feedback about how they are experienced by others in a group. These groups focus on self understanding and improving relationships with others.
Separate groups are available for undergraduates and graduate students.
