Groups
Our groups are organized to provide a setting for the most powerful support possible for change. They are particularly recommended when person has been suffering from a problem most of his/her life. There are group sessions in both office locations.
Group Therapy Rules
To join the group, you need to commit to come every week that we meet, and pay whether you come or not. We will use your credit card to pay $75 per week at the beginning of the month. We will give you a receipt for your insurance company and refund whatever they pay us to your credit card account.
You will be a member of the group until you get out, following this procedure:
At the BEGINNING of your NEXT-TO-LAST session, tell us that you are getting out. Bring a cassette recorder. We will ask you to review your goals and what you have done toward them and why you are leaving at this time. Then we will pass the tape recorder around and each person will give you feedback about what changes they have seen in you, what you have meant to them, etc. The tape is yours to keep. People often find it very valuable. Then at the last session, you say a personal goodbye to each person.
Optional enhancements are:
1. Read the daily lessons in A Course in Miracles and share what you learn in the sessions with all the group members.
2. Attend a 12 step group and report to the therapy group at the session what you are learning.
Here are clickable links to 12 step groups, dealing with different problems. If, like many people in today's economy, you are struggling with debt and spending and other addictions, be sure to note the last link of the list, for debtors anonymous.
