Group Sessions
A therapy group brings a small number of people together around one shared experience. A trained therapist keeps the structure safe, so everyone can speak, listen, and find that their struggle is not theirs alone.

what happens
How your sessions will work.
Start with fit
A brief conversation checks whether the group's theme and format match what you need right now.
Agree on safety
The therapist sets out what stays private, how to treat each other, and what to do if someone needs one-to-one support.
Participate at your pace
You are invited to contribute, but listening is also participation, especially in the first sessions.
your therapy pathway
What the journey looks like.
Usually a fixed series of 6–8 weekly sessions. This is the usual shape, not a contract. Your practitioner adjusts the pace to you, and you can pause or stop whenever you want.
Before joining
A fit conversation
A short call checks that the group's theme and timing suit what you need right now.
Session 1
Agreements
The group agrees what stays private and how to treat each other. You can just listen.
Middle sessions
Shared work
A therapist guides a theme each week. Hearing others often makes your own experience easier to name.
Last session
Closing well
The group reflects on what changed. You are told about next steps, including one-to-one support if you want it.

Before you begin
No. You can listen while you understand the group and join the conversation when you feel ready.
