Thanks to Procompare we found an excellent group therapist in no time! Really helpful and everything was ok - the therapist, price, nothing negative really.
Our therapist was excellent, can highly recommend! We used this site to find out cleaning lady as well so we knew what to expect and we were not disappointed!
If you are looking for a therapist, I can recommend this website! I had my doubts before trying, but my friend had a positive experience so she convinced me to try myself and she was right - in 2 days, 4 therapists gave me a call, all of them seemed good but I especially liked the style of 1 of the so the decision was basically a no brainer.
Group therapy in South Africa is a psychotherapeutic approach where one or more therapists lead a group of 5–12 participants. Sessions usually run for a few hours each week and can be set for a fixed number of weeks or continue over a year. This form of therapy, which became popular after World War II due to the high demand for mental health services, remains an efficient and cost-effective treatment option widely used today. Group therapy is often integrated into comprehensive treatment plans alongside individual therapy sessions, medication, and other care types to address a broad range of mental health disorders.
There are various group therapy treatments, including Psychotherapy Groups, Cognitive Therapy Groups, Modified Dynamic Group Therapy, Relapse Prevention Groups, Mutual Self-Help Groups, and Network Therapy. The selection of a specific type of group therapy depends on the participants' needs and the treatment goals. Specialized group therapies are also available to support specific patient populations, such as adolescents, LGBTQ+ community members, and the elderly, ensuring that therapy techniques are adapted to best meet group members' needs and treatment objectives.
Group therapy offers multiple benefits, including being more cost-effective than individual therapy. It provides a safe environment where participants can share experiences and offer support to each other. Additionally, group therapy fosters new insights, serves as a platform for role modeling positive behaviors, helps individuals find their voice, and improves interpersonal skills. The communal aspect of group therapy significantly impacts mental health by providing a sense of belonging and community. Research indicates that people in group therapy improve not only through therapist interventions but also from interacting with other group members, with some studies suggesting that group psychotherapy can produce stronger and longer-lasting results for many people compared to individual psychotherapy.
I was referred to you by Dr. Layren O'Brien and she thinks you're the best option for me. She diagnosed that I have severe untreated anxiety and I can confirm it is a problem. I would like to learn coping mechanisms for it. I would like to test to see if I am on any neurodivergent spectrum as well as I've always had the suspicion and I would like to know if the anxiety is linked to it. I am 23 currently and would just like to know the basic process and pricing for the type of sessions you'd suggest.
Good day, I am desperate to help my daughter Dorothy Simpson, she was diagnosed with schizophrenia and bipolar by Dr Shaffer East London. She is currently staying with my youngest daughter in East London and is really causing a lot of stress on that family. Could you please advise me how to handle this matter. Kind regards Mary Pieters
Good Day I am requesting quotes for my 10 year old daughter. Myself and her father got divorced when she was 3.5 years old, she has been having trouble lately with accepting her bonus mom which has been part of her life for almost 6/7 years. They are constantly fighting. Apart from this she is permanently upset or sad, when she is with me she complains about her father and bonus mom and that they never do anything with her or that her sister gets all the attention etc and when she is with her dad its the same. We need to find the root of the heartache and need assistance and guidance on how to help her and if there is something bigger to this.
