Group Therapy - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Portlandville, NY.

Group therapy is a form of psychotherapy that involves a psychologist, therapist, or certified addiction specialist trained in group therapy who conducts a therapy session with a group of clients who are all struggling with similar troubles. Group therapy in Portlandville can take place in a rehabilitation program, a church, or similar setting where such a meeting can take place without disturbance. Group therapy is often a very important aspect of substance treatment.

If an individual is in treatment for drug or alcohol addiction, group therapy and individual therapy, when combined, can provide healing in various ways. Group therapy can help an individual in recovery know that they are not alone with their problems, frustrations, troubles, etc. It can also help people conquer social anxiety as well, since it can be challenging for someone to open up about personal issues to people they really don't even know. Once the social timidness has gone away, people in group therapy gain clarity and fellowship with people who are working through similar challenges. And even more so, they can share in each other's progress and help one another make the positive improvements they need to make to recover by being involved in a strong support system.
