going to buck the trend here and say that:
group therapy really is the best way to progress, even if you think you need 1 to 1.
What happens in the group are many unexpected things
e.g relating to others who have issues, opens your mind
understanding that at the core: anxiety/depression / compulsion
all require mindful approaches in order to cope better
make choices that give you the best chances in life.
The courses are structured to intoduce topics like WRAP plans
and go into an analysis of the mind body emotions physiology
when we are stressed / depressed/ anxious and so on.
The tools you learn from these groups are of high value.
And the icing on the cake is , its possible to complete a whole course
without ever once referring to your particular personal issues in the group
That you do do on a 1 to 1 with your key worker
group work is like going on a journey with strangers and learning|
how to be a human being again, esp if you've lost touch with yourself.
I highly recommend groups , even as research shows we learn better
together, sharing experiences and understanding benefits tremendously.
Clearly it isn't for everyone, however that needs
to be discovered after group work is attempted and not before
