How Group Therapy for Mental Health Works in MA
Group therapy brings people together who are working through related mental health challenges. Research shows group therapy is as effective as individual therapy for many conditions and offers unique benefits like shared understanding.
Led by a group therapist, sessions typically last 60 to 90 minutes. These can include various topic discussions, skill-building, and therapeutic exercises. You’ll learn to recognize patterns in your thinking, develop healthier stress responses, and build connections.

FAQs
How is group therapy different from individual therapy?
Group therapy provides support and multiple perspectives from others. Individual therapy offers one-on-one focus. Many people benefit from combining both for comprehensive treatment.
Will I have to share personal information in group therapy?
You share what feels comfortable. While participation helps you get the most from group therapy, you’re never forced to disclose something.
What if I don't feel comfortable in a group setting?
Many people feel nervous at first. Your therapist creates a safe, judgment-free environment to help you feel comfortable opening up.
How long will I attend group therapy?
The duration varies based on your needs and treatment program. Some groups run for specific time periods like 8 to 12 weeks, while others continue longer.
Can I attend group therapy virtually?
Yes. We offer secure virtual group therapy sessions. These provide the same benefits as in-person treatment while eliminating travel barriers.
What happens if someone in my group breaks confidentiality?
Confidentiality agreements are legally binding, and violations are taken seriously. Your therapist emphasizes privacy and ensures everyone understands the consequences of breaches.
