Group therapy is a form of treatment that consists of a therapist, psychologist, or certified addiction specialist experienced in group therapy who conducts a therapy session with a group of clients who are all struggling with similar issues. Group therapy in Alpena can take place in a rehab program, a church, or similar setting where the meeting can happen without disturbance. Group therapy is typically a very important component of substance treatment.
If an individual is receiving treatment for alcohol or drug addiction, group therapy and individualized therapy, when done together, can provide recovery in different ways. Group therapy can help the person in treatment know that they have support for their frustrations, troubles, etc. It can help individuals get over social barriers as well, since it can be challenging for an individual to open up about such deep issues to people they really don't know very well. Once the social timidness has lifted, individuals in group therapy gain clarity and friendliness with people who are facing similar problems. And even more so, they can share in one another's personal improvements and help each other make the positive improvements they must make to recover by being part of a robust support system.
