Group therapy is a type of psychotherapy that involves a psychologist, therapist, or certified addiction specialist adept in group therapy who directs a therapy session with a group of people who are all struggling with similar troubles. Group therapy in Independence can take place in a rehab center, an office, a church, or similar setting where this type of meeting can happen without distraction. Group therapy is typically a vital component of addiction rehabilitation.
If an individual is in treatment for drug or alcohol addiction, group therapy and individualized therapy, when combined, can offer recovery in different ways. Group therapy can help an individual in rehab know that they have support for their problems, troubles, challenges, etc. It can help someone get over social anxiety as well, since it can take a lot for the person to be open about personal issues to people they really don't know very well. Once the social timidness has lifted, clients in group therapy gain confidence and affinity with people who are facing similar challenges. And even more so, they can share in each other's personal improvements and help each other make the positive changes they should make to recover by being part of a robust support system.
