Group Therapy - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Oakford, IL.

Group therapy is a form of psychotherapy that consists of a psychologist, therapist, or certified addiction specialist trained in group therapy who directs a therapy session with a group of individuals who are ideally all struggling with similar difficulties. Group therapy in Oakford can take place in a treatment facility, a church, or similar setting where the meeting can occur without disturbance. Group therapy is typically a vital component of drug and alcohol treatment.

If an individual is receiving treatment for substance abuse and addiction, group therapy and individualized therapy, when combined, can provide recovery in different ways. Group therapy can help the person in treatment know that they are not alone and have support for their problems, frustrations, challenges, etc. It can also help people get over social barriers as well, since it can be difficult for the person to be open about personal issues to people they really don't know very well. Once the social awkwardness has lifted, clients in group therapy achieve confidence and affinity with people who are working through similar issues. And even more so, they can share in each other's progress and help one another make the positive improvements they must make to recover by being involved in a strong support system.
