How Does Healing Group Compare to Individual Therapy

Marriage counseling Raleigh NC is great for estranged couples living as roommates and not feeling connected with one another anymore.

As a licensed relationship therapist, I also enjoy working with women who like working on themselves and understand the importance of transformation and healing.

Some of my individual clients are on a long healing journey of learning how to be better versions of themselves. They want to learn how to be authentic, stop pleasing others, and change inherited self-limiting beliefs.

Individual therapy can be a wonderful place to start working on yourself if you are going through a life transition, like having children leave home. Counseling can help you rediscover your identity, connect to your feminine power, and be as authentic as possible.

Individual counseling can be done before and simultaneously with your marriage counseling Raleigh NC to help you learn how to treat yourself with self-compassion, come to terms with past wounds, and move on.

So, individual counseling can help you feel more confident, aligned with your true self, and loved. You will stop looking on the outside for validation and acceptance because you will know who you truly are.

However, this kind of self-discovery can be a lonely, challenging, and long journey that many people need support on. So, a women's online healing and empowerment group can be the perfect place if you feel that you need support to sustain the positive change you achieved in individual or marriage therapy.

What Exactly are Women's Healing and Empowerment Groups?

Healing groups are small groups that enable individuals to recover, support one another, and practice valuable skills in everyday interactions.

These are discussion and listening groups led by a group facilitator who assists them in sharing their experiences and integrating what they have learned in psychotherapy, providing a secure setting for healing and personal growth.

When you sign up for an online empowerment woman’s group, expect to get to know yourself better in a safe and supportive environment of other women. You will be able to reevaluate your unproductive thought patterns, self-limiting beliefs, understand what causes your problems, and practice communication skills in a caring and empathetic environment.

What is the Difference between Individual Therapy and a Women's Online Healing Group?

Individual therapy involves a different way of working on your healing process. It is a highly personalized treatment in which the client learns about therapeutic objectives and works toward them with the help of their psychotherapist.

On the other hand, group therapy involves a group environment in which a group of women (typically between three and six women) comes together to support each other, connect with each other, hold each other accountable, and keep practicing this new way of being with each other.

A women's virtual healing and empowerment group in Raleigh, NC, is a good option for women who have done a good amount of individual therapy, marriage counseling, or both and who are going towards the end of their treatment journey.

A healing women's group can help integrate all the lessons and information they have acquired in therapy and keep practicing them in everyday life, surrounded by people in the support group who are there to help each other out.

So, it is a similar process because I still bring my therapist's wisdom, expertise, and knowledge as well as my personal knowledge to these topics. Still, the angle from which we approach this learning process is different.

Summary

Again, the individual and weekly marriage counseling sessions are very customized to your unique needs. Still, there is no community support, and you usually have to wait until your next weekly session to process the information.

In contrast, in the women's online healing and empowerment group, I am available throughout the week, and so are the other women.

The whole process happens through an app where everyone can connect, inspire each other, and check-in with each other. In this way, we feel motivated and supported to dig deeper and work on ourselves.

I hope this was helpful. If you have any questions or would like to schedule an appointment in my Wake Forest or virtual office, do not hesitate to book your free 15 min phone consultation online by clicking here.
