Group therapy is a type of psychotherapy that involves a psychologist, therapist, or certified addiction specialist experienced in group therapy who leads a therapy session with a group of clients who are ideally all struggling with similar difficulties. Group therapy in Kingston can take place in a rehab program, a church, or similar place where this type of meeting can happen without disturbance. Group therapy is typically a very important aspect of addiction recovery.
If an individual is in treatment for substance abuse and addiction, group therapy and individualized therapy, when done together, can provide healing in different ways. Group therapy can help the person in rehab feel like they have support for their problems, challenges, etc. Group therapy can also help individuals get over social barriers as well, because it can be difficult for someone to open up about personal issues to people they really don't know very well. Once the social awkwardness has lifted, individuals in group therapy gain conviction and camaraderie with people who are experiencing 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.
