Group Description: Group therapy has been found to be as effective as individual therapy in numerous studies (Rosendahl et al., 2021). It can be helpful for those wishing to be in better relationship with themselves and with others. Click here to learn more about group therapy.
This particular weekly trauma-informed therapy group integrates improvisation and clowning with process-oriented group psychotherapy to deepen group members’ capacity to play, to be present, and to connect to themselves and to one another. Every group session begins with one improvisational, clowning, or other meditative exercise designed to heighten awareness, facilitate group development, and deepen exploration of current goals. Members will have the remainder of the group session to examine their emotions, roles, and relationship patterns as they occur here-and-now.
