Group Counseling

Group sessions provide a modality for meeting the needs of an individual in a group setting. Group members are encouraged to explore their style of relating to other members by interacting freely and honestly in a supportive environment. The group format generally involves members who come together to discuss common concerns once each week. Themes which have been the focus of group counseling have included bereavement, stress management, anger management, body image and life skills training. Please see Announcements on our homepage for more information about the groups currently available.
