Group Therapy Details

Joining a support group may seem strange, but it is an awesome untapped resource that is often underutilized for outpatient mental health services. There are many life challenges that can be addressed well in a group settings such as grief, self-esteem, health issues, social challenges, anger, etc. Group members are "almost always surprised by how rewarding the group experience can be" (apa.org). We are now accepting applicants for a closed virtual support group for adult African-American women (18+) in the state of Illinois. The group will focus on challenges and strengths related to black culture. Each group member will have an opportunity to identify their own personal challenges and goals and closing out with an opportunity to review progress toward a previously established goal. A closed group means, group members will be set and no additional members will be able to join after the start date. Groups will remain small to allow for the greatest benefit with 6-8 members and will be scheduled weekly for 6-8 weeks. Those who are interested will receive updates along the way. If you are interested or have more questions, please send an email expressing your interest and/or detailing your questions or concerns.
