Fruit Group Therapy & Group Therapy at Thrive Counseling Center LLC


We can all use a little humor sometimes! Enjoy this cartoon from www.psychotherapy.net by Victor Yalom.

Group Counseling
Group Counseling is a wonderful opportunity to be a part of a unique counseling experience. Group Counseling is usually compromised of 6-8 clients who meet face to face with a counselor to talk about their concerns. Group members can share their own experiences and learn from peers at the same time. The content of group counseling is confidential and members must agree to not discuss the group outside the counseling office. Group therapy works because it gives us a safe environment to discuss our struggles and try out new experiences.
