Services

Group Therapy

Sixty-minute telehealth groups for practicing skills and hearing from people facing similar things.

Who It Is For

When it helps to hear from others

Groups suit people who want structure, practice and the relief of realizing others are dealing with something similar. Many clients attend a group alongside individual therapy. A group can also be a first step for someone who is not ready for one-to-one work. Listening counts as taking part.

What Can Shift
