Group Therapy - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Athens, WV.

Group therapy is a form of psychotherapy that involves a therapist, psychologist, or an addiction professional experienced in group therapy who directs a therapy session with a group of individuals who are ideally all struggling with similar difficulties. Group therapy in Athens can take place in a rehabilitation program, an office, a church, or similar setting where this type of meeting can happen without distraction. Group therapy is typically a fundamental aspect of addiction rehabilitation.

If an individual is in treatment for drug or alcohol addiction, group therapy and individualized therapy, when combined, can provide recovery in different ways. Group therapy can help an individual in recovery know that they have support for their frustrations, challenges, etc. It can also help individuals get over social anxiety as well, because it can be challenging for an individual to open up about such deep issues to people they really don't even know. Once the social awkwardness has faded, people in group therapy gain clarity and affinity with people who are facing similar issues. 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.
