What Are Process Groups?

Process groups are a type of group therapy where people talk about their feelings and reactions with a therapist guiding the discussion.

This approach helps individuals understand their behaviors and interactions with others by focusing on the group’s dynamics – receiving support and encouragement from the group of people – which is fundamental in psychotherapy.

Unlike specific-topic groups, process groups let members explore a wide range of personal issues through the lens of group interactions. Our therapist ensures the space is safe for everyone to express themselves and learn from each other.

This method is beneficial for improving how people communicate and connect with others, as it mirrors real-life social situations.
