What happens at groups?

Focused (or structured) treatment groups cover specific topics with the goal of developing skills to better manage conditions such as/but not limited to depression or anxiety, addictions, anger and emotions, or bipolar disorder.

Support Groups (or unstructured) groups cover specific topics or situations and have no set agenda but allow group members to bring up anything they want related to managing relationships or symptoms of having conditions such as/but not limited to anxiety, depression, addictions, or situations such as currenty going through/living after a divorce, surviving war or assault, or grief after loss of a loved one.      

Who can attend groups?

Any person with a specific condition or specific set of experiences may attend a therapy group however an individual prescreening appoinment is required before attending a group.

How long are groups?

Ongoing groups have no clear end or beginning.  Group members are encouraged to attend regularly but may attend whenever they want as missing a group is inconsequential because each group is separate and unconnected  

Brief Groups have a clear beginning date and a clear end date.  These groups are often sequential and members are encouraged not to miss group as vital information is missed
