Group Therapy Services
We offer a robust selection of group therapy services, consistent with our practice philosophies about the vital importance of relationships. Kindred Psychology group therapy offerings are based on specific presenting problems, life circumstances, shared identities, and/or the type of skills that need further development. Group therapy is a cost-effective treatment modality covered by most insurance companies.
Group therapy is a powerful companion to individual therapy.
We have found that group therapy, in combination with individual therapy, can be a particularly effective combination for some individuals. Clients who are seeing individual therapists outside of Kindred Psychology are welcome to attend our groups. In fact, we highly encourage clients to maintain their established therapeutic relationships with outside providers! For a description of our current group therapy offerings, please see below.
