GROUP THERAPY

'Better Outcomes for Chronic Conditions'

​

​

Things to know about Group Therapy

• Participants are often surprised as to how powerful and rewarding group therapy can be. Members of the group can assist in coming up with ideas for improving a difficult situation, whilst putting their own problems into perspective. Participants can increase understanding of dealing with their condition and improve acceptance of self.

• Group Therapy Sessions usually comprise between 6- 10 participants and are delivered by a registered psychologist

• In order to better support the Return to Work Process, (subject to individual consent) a week by week outline of session components,  key learnings and any behavioural strategies will be fed back to the Case Manager / RTW Consultant, facilitating purposeful discussion in  between sessions for better reinforcement and consolidation of the therapy.

• In support of our commitment to behaviour change and symptomology reduction, participants will complete a brief depression/ anxiety scale upon commencement and conclusion of the therapy, thereby ensuring our program remains solution focussed and upholds best practice psychology.

• Program components cover adjusting to change, education about complex conditions, motivation , stopping self sabotaging behaviours, planning for the future
