Online Group Therapy: Expert Group Therapists in NYC and NJ
Desiring to hear from others with similar struggles and learning how they overcame is perfectly ok. In addition to therapy, peer support is a helpful way to achieve consolation during moments of distress. Our peer support groups are designed to curate connections with people who truly get your experiences alongside a professional giving coping techniques scientifically proven to work in text books and in real life.
Who Can Benefit from Group Therapy?
Group therapy is ideal for individuals who:
✔ Struggle with relationship challenges (dating, breakups, communication issues)
✔ Feel overwhelmed by stress or anxiety and need support
✔ Want to build self-confidence and improve social skills
✔ Experience feelings of loneliness or isolation
✔ Need a safe, judgment-free space to process emotions
Who is Not Appropriate for Group Therapy?
Group therapy may not be the best fit if you:
✖ Require intensive one-on-one support for deeper emotional wounds
✖ Have severe trauma or crisis situations needing specialized attention
✖ Struggle with severe social anxiety that makes participation extremely difficult
