What is Group Counselling?
By Purvangi Shukla
As the name suggests, group counselling provides psychotherapy in a group setting as opposed to a one-on-one setting. It is commonly implemented in cases of anxiety.
Group counselling can also be coupled/alternated with individual counselling for perfect results. People in group counselling improve not only from the psychoeducation and guidance provided by the therapist but also from observing others and receiving feedback from group members.
