What is group counselling?
This is a type of therapy where people come together in a supportive and confidential group setting to discuss their experiences, challenges, and goals under the guidance of a trained therapist. It provides you with the chance to connect with others who are facing similar issues. You can share and listen to each other’s experiences to gain valuable insights, support, and encouragement while working towards your own growth.
