Group Therapy Programs
Our cognitive behavioural therapy groups are an effective alternative to one-on-one treatment program. Group sessions are 2 hours long and are held once per week for 16 weeks. In addition to providing a supportive setting to discuss and learn about anxiety disorders, the groups involve: therapist accompanied exposure tasks, exposure to anxiety symptoms, training on cognitive restructuring techniques, and the designation of individual homework tasks and long term goals. Although the treatment occurs within a cohesive group framework, we emphasize that each member assumes responsibility for his or her treatment by working regularly and independently when outside of the group (i.e. homework).
Ultimately, it is our goal to eliminate anxiety problems and equip the patient with the skills necessary to prevent/minimize relapse in the future.
