Group Therapy & Workshops
Some people can benefit from peer support groups or doing therapy with multiple people. Our group options can help you relate more to others who have similar experiences to you. Meeting at regular times during the week gives you a consistent support group and a place to relate to others. All of our group therapy and workshops are facilitated by Master’s level therapists.
Workshops can have a set number of sessions and specific goals that they will accomplish before completion. Workshops can be repeated multiple times a year, so if you see one that you like, feel free to inquire regarding the next start date.
Group therapy sessions at Red Willow are ongoing, having no start and stop date. You can join these groups at your convenience.
Below are some of the therapeutic groups and workshops that we offer through Red Willow Counseling & Recovery.
