If you have never considered group therapy, it is normal to have questions about what it is and how it can help you.  Groups are a recommended modality of therapy if you struggle in relationships or struggle to feel good within yourself. Group therapy relies on the interactions between group members to provide new experiences of connection.  Group therapy is one of the most effective modalities to improve your experience of intimacy, interpersonal effectiveness and satisfaction in relationship.  Through these new experiences, the impact of past negative experiences can  be lessened.
