Group Counseling

 


What is Group Counseling

Group counseling is a form of counseling where a small group of people meet regularly to discuss, interact, and explore problems with each other and the group leader. Group counseling seeks to give students a safe and comfortable place on campus where they can work out problems and emotional concerns. Members gain insight into their own thoughts and be­havior, and offer suggestions and support to others.

In addition, people who have a difficult time with interpersonal relationships can benefit  from the social interactions that are a basic part of the group counseling experience.

Most groups composed of students of differing ages, backgrounds and ex­periences. This helps to provide additional perspectives.
