Group Therapy Group Therapy at Lukin Center Group therapy is a form of psychotherapy in which a group of individuals meet in-person or virtually to discuss their challenges together under the supervision and facilitation of one or more therapists. Group therapy allows for members to normalize their feelings and experiences through skill building and/or processing emotions. In doing so, members may realize they are not alone in what they have been experiencing, and this can offer great healing for themselves and others. Group therapy offers dynamics that may not be offered in individual therapy alone. Through group therapy, skill building, and emotion processing occur in a controlled environment with other individuals who may be experiencing similar or related difficulties. Confidentiality is of utmost importance in a group. Each member entrusts the other members that what is shared within the confines of the group will remain private. Lukin Center has several therapists who specialize in group therapy and below are a few options that we offer.
