Group Therapy Myths: What Really Happens in a Therapy Group
When people hear “group therapy,” they often imagine sitting in a circle and spilling secrets to strangers. But that couldn’t be further from the truth.
Group therapy is one of the most powerful, evidence-based ways to build community, accountability, and connection—especially for those of us who’ve learned to carry everything alone.
At Irenic Therapeutic Services, we offer virtual therapy groups that create supportive, judgment-free spaces where healing happens through shared understanding. It’s not about being “fixed.” It’s about not feeling isolated anymore.
In group therapy, you’ll:
Learn skills for managing emotions and boundaries.
Hear others’ stories and realize you’re not alone in your struggles.
Receive feedback and encouragement from peers.
Practice communication and relational safety in real time.
Our groups are facilitated by trauma-informed therapists who understand intersectionality and identity. Whether it’s a trauma recovery group, perinatal wellness group, or relationship-focused space, each one is designed to help you grow alongside others who get it.
Healing doesn’t have to be lonely work.
