Group Therapy
Group therapy has both psycho-educational and therapeutic purposes. Usually, there will be 8-10 people attending. Most therapy groups are closed groups where you will be working on the same topic with the same group of people over a short period of time. During this period of time, you will learn together with your group-mates about a specific topic. There will be discussions and therapeutic work/assignments that are intended to lead you to the change. You are expected to be committed to participate in group activities and homework in order for maximizing the therapeutic outcome. Open groups are on-going groups where commitment is not required. Bessie offers group therapy in various themes and topics. Examples of previous therapy group and workshops topics are:
