Group therapy has been shown to help with many conditions, including mental health and addiction. If you are new to recovery, group therapy is a useful tool that can help you understand your triggers and help you know what it is like to be in someone else’s shoes.
During group session, therapy may explore many topics.
7 group therapy topics
