Group Coaching/Support groups

Why group sessions?

You may have never considered group coaching or support groups, however they can prove to be incredibly impactful. 

Group sessions involve a small group of people (10-12) who come together to discuss and work through their individual issues with the guidance of a trained coach. Group sessions can be helpful for a variety of reasons:

 
 
Social support

Being in a group setting provides an opportunity for you to connect with others who may be facing similar challenges. This sense of community can provide a sense of comfort and validation, and you can learn from others’ experiences.

Increased insight

Hearing other people’s stories can help you gain insight into your own thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. You can also learn coping strategies from others in the group.

 
 
 
Improved communication skills

Group therapy provides opportunities for you to practice and improve your communication and interpersonal skills. This can be helpful in all relationships.

Cost-effectiveness

Group therapy is typically more affordable than individual therapy, making it accessible to a wider range of people.

 
 
All ages and genders welcome

  • Cost of group sessions is $40.

Provider: Todd Baratz

Life is majorly challenging, especially when it comes to relationships. There is no guidance and most of us are navigating these complexities blindly. Furthermore, relationships often trigger a significant amount of trauma, and when you add sex into the equation, it can feel overwhelming. We all could benefit from support; no one is immune to these struggles. That's why we invite you to join our group therapy sessions. Here, you can ask questions, receive answers, find support, and connect with a community of individuals facing similar challenges.

FAQ

  • Therapy and coaching are both forms of professional wellness support, but they differ at times in their approach and focus.

    Therapy is typically focused on addressing mental health issues, such as depression, anxiety, and trauma. It is usually led by a licensed mental health professional, such as a psychologist or psychiatrist, and may involve a diagnosis and treatment plan.

    Coaching, on the other hand, is more focused on goal-setting and personal growth. It is usually led by a coach with a specific background in mental health. 

    However coaching and therapy are similar and overlap.Both are beneficial for personal growth: they help individuals understand themselves better, identify their strengths and weaknesses, and work towards reaching their full potential.

  • We do not take insurance directly, but we offer low-cost and sliding scale options to make therapy more affordable for our clients.

  • You can easily make an appointment with one of our therapists by visiting our website and clicking on the 'Book an appointment' button or by clicking on the 'Book Now' button on each therapist's profile. This will take you to our calendar where you can view the availability of each therapist and schedule a session that works best for you.

  • All of our sessions are conducted online, through virtual platforms.

  • The frequency of sessions can vary depending on the individual's needs and goals. Some people may benefit from weekly sessions, while others may need less frequent sessions. It is important to discuss this with your provider so that they can create a treatment plan that is tailored to your specific needs. The provider will be able to give you guidance on how often you should have sessions based on your situation, you can schedule the sessions as frequently or infrequently as you like, but it's important to have a regular schedule to track progress and also to maintain the relationship.
