Group therapy is commonly a very important aspect of substance rehab.

If a person is in treatment for drug or alcohol addiction, group therapy and individual therapy, when done together, can provide recovery in several ways. Group therapy can help an individual in treatment feel like they are not alone with their frustrations, troubles, challenges, etc. Group therapy can also help someone get over social barriers and anxiety as well, because it can be challenging for someone to be open about such deep problems to people they really don't even know. Once the social timidness has faded, clients in group therapy gain clarity and friendliness with people who are facing similar challenges. And additionally, they can share in one another's progress and help one another make the positive changes they need to make to recover by being part of a robust support system.
