Group therapy is a form of psychotherapy that consists of a psychologist, therapist, or an addiction professional experienced in group therapy who directs a therapy session with a group of people who are all struggling with similar difficulties. Group therapy in Iowa City can take place in a rehab center, a church, or similar setting where the meeting can happen without disturbance. Group therapy is often a fundamental part of drug and alcohol recovery.
If someone is receiving treatment for substance abuse and addiction, group therapy and individualized therapy, when combined, can offer healing in several ways. Group therapy can help the person in rehab know that they are not alone with their problems, troubles, challenges, etc. Group therapy can help someone conquer social anxiety as well, because it can be challenging for someone to open up about personal problems to people they really don't know very well. Once the social awkwardness has faded, clients in group therapy achieve confidence and friendliness with others who are dealing with similar challenges. And additionally, they can share in one another's personal improvements and help one another make the positive changes they must make to recover by being involved in a strong support system.
