Doubts and frequently asked questions:

What is the usefulness of group psychotherapy based on?

What am I going to accomplish with this step?

Will there be enough time in a group to listen to my problems?

What will happen if I don't like the other members of the group?

It is normal to have questions or doubts when one thinks about joining a group. Joining a group has value in large part because it provides the opportunity to learn how other people think and feel. We come to better understand our way of thinking and acting and that of others.

We see how the members of the group react to each other. We live with other people on a daily basis, and we can benefit from talking about our experiences and our conflicts with others. In the group, you will learn that you may not be as different or alone as you thought. You will collaborate with your peers facing common problems for all. This is one of the greatest benefits of group psychotherapy. The more you get involved in the group, the more you get out of it.

Why in a group?

If you think about it, we have all been raised in groups, whether in family or school life, as workers or as citizens. We develop as human beings always in group environments. Group psychotherapy is no different. It provides a context to share problems or concerns, better understand one's own situation, and learn together with other people. In summary….

It is in a group, BECAUSE LIFE IS IN A GROUP.

Group psychotherapy helps the person to know himself, and also to improve his interpersonal relationships. You can focus on the problems of loneliness, depression and anxiety. It helps us make important changes to improve the quality of life.

Group therapy works! Scientific studies have shown that group psychotherapy is as effective as individual therapy - sometimes even more so.
