Group Therapy
Group therapy sessions available for clients throughout the Bellevue area and greater Seattle region as well as online options.
What Is Group Therapy?
Group psychotherapy is an effective form of therapy in which a small number of people
meet under the guidance of a professionally trained therapist to help themselves and
each other. There are many different approaches to group therapy, but they are all
based on creating a safe, supportive, and cohesive space to address personal,
relationship, and societal issues.
What makes group therapy unique and powerful?
We live and interact with people every day, and often there are concerns that other
people are experiencing or grappling with that can be beneficial to share with others. In
group therapy, you learn that perhaps you’re not alone or as different as you think. You’ll
meet and interact with people and give and share helpful feedback; the whole group
learns to work together on common problems — one of the most beneficial aspects of
group therapy.
