Process Group Therapy
I offer an ongoing weekly therapy group online.
The group helps expand your self expression and develop trust in intimacy. We work with a “here and now” or “modern analytic” method. The idea is to practice speaking directly and from deep emotion, build faith in that exposure, and get feedback on how you affect others.
If you want an idea of how this all works, I recommend watching the show called “Group” on youtube. Link here.
That show is an unscripted and accurate look at how modern analytic group therapy looks like in action. The therapist in the show teaches at the center where I received much of my training, The Center For Group Studies.
Some goals of group are:
to trust that your relationships can handle your truest self-expression - of your anger, sadness, wildness, or other selves.
to better understand and handle the unspoken exchange between people (“What did he mean?” “Why am I shutting down?” “Why have I been lying?”).
to better understand your effect on others.
to know and relax your own patterns of relating.
The group costs $85/session. Your insurance can potentially cover group. I take Aetna, Cigna, BCBS, LaCare, Kaiser, MHN, United, Oscar, Beacon, Anthem, Empire, Molina, Presbyterian, HealthNet, Magellan, Medicare.
The group work includes a handful of 1-on 1 sessions during the course of the group.
