Group Therapy

Working in group therapy can help us work through lifes more complex problems and situations that can often leave us feeling isolated and disconnected. Therapeutic groups can bring into the foreground emotional experiences which emerge in the context of all groups.

Groups can be a powerful therapeutic medium that focuses on the relationship between the individual and the group, emphasising the essential social nature of human experience and helping us to understand how we experience other people and how they experience us.

Group therapy offers a safe, confidential and supportive space for you to share whatever is on your mind without shame or judgement and the chance to practice being in connection with others.

The group is facilitated by UKCP registered existential analytic psychotherapist Helen Sproat and will be in English.

This weekly therapeutic group will run for 90 minutes each week for 12 weeks with fixed group of 10 people.

Each participant books a 12-week block, which allows the group to become a holding and healing space.

This group is scheduled to meet on the following dates in 2024:

• Week 1: Wednesday 18th September: 18:30-20:00 GMT
