Group therapy is a type of treatment that involves a psychologist, therapist, or an addiction professional trained in group therapy who conducts a therapy session with a group of people who are ideally all going through similar challenges. Group therapy in Riverhead can take place in a rehabilitation facility, a church, or similar setting where the meeting can take place without distraction. Group therapy is often a vital component of substance rehabilitation.
If someone is receiving treatment for substance abuse and addiction, group therapy and individual therapy, when combined, can offer healing in various ways. Group therapy can help the person in treatment feel like they are not alone with their problems, troubles, challenges, etc. Group therapy can help people conquer social barriers as well, since it can be difficult for someone to open up about such deep problems to people they really don't know very well. Once the social timidness has faded, clients in group therapy acquire confidence and camaraderie with others who are dealing with similar issues. And additionally, they can share in each other's personal improvements and help one another make the positive improvements they must make to recover by being involved in a strong support system.
