Group Therapy for Addiction

Group therapy plays a major role in most addiction therapy programs. For instance, many clients find it healing to meet in groups and participate in topics related to addiction. These may include learning new techniques for managing stress, troubleshooting ways to recognize triggers, or simply sitting and listening quietly to what others discuss.

A licensed psychiatric counselor leads a group therapy program. As a result, the conversation stays on target, and the discussion remains positive and hopeful. Clients are usually free to discuss their own feelings relating to the topic at hand, which is often beneficial to everyone listening. Group therapy at United Recovery Project offers many advantages to clients in recovery.

A Group Therapy For Addiction Program Foster Feelings Of Inclusion

Isolation and loneliness are two devastating side effects of addiction. Often, clients who struggle with this chronic disease find themselves alienated from friends and family. Even in the 21st century, there’s a stigma surrounding this condition.

Many still consider it the result of weak character or grave decisions. Neither is true. Addiction attacks the brain, and it’s a real medical condition that requires treatment. Still, there’s a shortage of accurate information out there that truly explains substance use disorder.

As a result, those who struggle with it become pigeonholed and labeled as weak or somehow defective. Feelings of shame or embarrassment may cause an addicted person to isolate, which only worsens the problem. As loneliness sets in, the need to self-medicate may strengthen.

Fortunately, a good group therapy program lessens these feelings of aloneness. Because there’s no judgment in the group and no blame or shame, clients view it as a safe place to open up and share long-repressed thoughts and feelings.

Group Therapy Provides Fellowship

Fellowship can be immensely healing. The simple act of finding others like yourself, who are fighting the same fight and searching for the same answers, is empowering.

Congregating with others who’ve experienced your same trials and tribulations may help you find solutions to your own problems. In a group therapy program, clients share stories of how they overcame obstacles, resources they found helpful, and techniques they used to prevent relapse. Generally, sharing information is important, but so is feeling as though you’re a part of something bigger.
