Join a Group Therapy Session

Let's thrive, not just survive! Join our group sessions and experience the transformative benefits of shared experiences, mutual support, and personal growth.

Support from Peers

Group counseling allows individuals to connect with others who may be experiencing similar challenges. This creates a strong support system within the group, as members can offer each other empathy, understanding, and advice.

Increased Self-Awareness

Through sharing and listening to others' stories, individuals can gain a better understanding of their own thoughts and emotions. This self-awareness can lead to personal growth and positive changes in behavior.

FAQs

FAQs about Group Counseling at Overcomers

What are the rules for group counseling?

Think of them as the “good vibes only” guidelines: keep what’s shared confidential, listen with empathy, show up for yourself and others, and give everyone space to speak. Respect and honesty are the foundation of every breakthrough.

What is the main goal of group therapy?

The main goal is connection and growth. In group therapy, you learn you’re not alone, gain fresh perspectives, and build coping skills that actually stick. It’s about healing together—because sometimes, strength grows best in community.

What is the meaning of group counseling?

Group counseling is like having your own personal support squad. It’s a safe space where people with shared challenges come together to talk, learn, and grow—guided by a licensed therapist who helps keep the conversation supportive and meaningful.

What if I have more questions about Group Therapy?

Please contact the group facilitator listed below if you have specific questions about DBT or the group itself. If you have other questions, please contact scheduling. FYI, the cost is listed as $30 per group session because most insurances do not cover group therapy, and if they do, the copay is usually around $30 anyway. However, Medicaid does pay for groups with no copay!

What does group therapy look like?

During the first hour of the group, clients are encouraged to share their efforts to use DBT skills over the past week. No one is forced to share, though you might find that you benefit more from the group if you're courageous enough to share. You will receive empathy, validation, support, encouragement, and coaching from peers and the group facilitator. The second hour of the group is devoted to learning a new skill using DBT handouts (found in the PDF you will receive). You will be asked to practice the skill over the next week using a worksheet (also found in the PDF). No one will be shamed for not completing worksheets, though keep in mind that you will not get much out of the group if you don't practice the skills you're learning. Some people (who loathe worksheets) benefit from practicing skills and journaling about their experiences.

The hardest part of the therapeutic process is reaching the therapist's door. The work begins from that moment on.

Every story is woven with meaningful threads—culture, heritage, courage, pain, and resilience. Life’s challenges often require bravery to face discomfort, curiosity to explore your inner world, and compassion to heal what has been hurt.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Abby is the most professional and strongest counselor I have ever worked with. Having a psychology background and working in social services, I am familiar or have worked with dozens of therapists. She is maintained a very professional approach and her model of counseling is a perfect blend between structure and empathy. I have recommended her services to several people and intended to continue doing so!

 Serena Chalepah LPCC
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Serena has not only knowledge, but compassion, understanding, guidance to push through whatever obstacles I have faced, and the advice needed to learn new traits or skills. I’ve definitely had a battle of finding a therapist I not only connect with, but someone I’m comfortable sharing some uncomfortable situations with to help move past. She’s been so very patient with me and my life’s ups and downs. I can’t thank her enough for being so genuine! Has been nothing but a great experience!
