Group support for providing group therapy

Do you want to start offering group therapy? Group supervision is a great place to get encouragement and training for adding group therapy work to your practice – whether standard process group, psycho-educational short courses, or community presentations. In the welcoming and supportive environment of a group, you can build your confidence in practice development, skill enhancement, and effective group treatment.

“Elsbeth’s group has been such a blessing. A blend of both professional and personal – helping to uncover blind-spots and identifying the work to do to become a better therapist. I always leave group with both practical suggestions and interventions for upcoming therapy sessions, as well as a better overall conception of the work as a whole. The group is a wonderful place to gain new perspectives and feel less-alone in an otherwise isolating profession. I can’t recommend this group enough, I can’t imagine practicing without it.”
