Meet our Group Therapists at MFSP
Joining a therapeutic group is a really wonderful step in your healing and growing process. While individual therapy gives you one on one tailored support, group therapy gives you both a group of humans to care about you, but also helps you explore your complex feelings towards others in real time.
Group therapy is excellent for people that want to build skills in how they relate to others, build confidence in themselves, and get support both from a therapist and from their peers.
Our group therapists love the energy of working with groups and we will engage with each of you to support you in your work. We are all passionate about group work and have seen the ways in which it can change people’s lives. Give it a try! We have 4 groups currently accepting new members.
