Group Therapy

We typically recommend group therapy for those whose needs would be best served in a group atmosphere. Learning new communication skills, adjusting to life changes like going to college, or overcoming shyness are all instances where certain skills are best practiced with other people present. Group therapy connects people who are often working on similar skills and provides support for all involved.

Some of our current group therapy topics include: motherhood, trauma and resiliency, grief, and stress and mood management.

The first few meetings with your group will focus on establishing trust. Each member will talk about their experiences and share what they hope to gain from their time with the group. At least one trained professional leads this discussion and helps facilitate interactions.

This depends entirely on your needs and goals. Group therapy can be incredibly powerful for building connections, gaining unique perspectives, and practicing interpersonal skills in a supportive environment. Individual therapy offers a private space to dive deeper into personal challenges, explore your thoughts and feelings, and work at your own pace.

Some people benefit most from one format, while others find a combination of both to be the most helpful. For example, you might attend group sessions to learn from shared experiences and build a community, while also participating in individual therapy to process what comes up in group and receive personalized guidance.

Wyandot Center has an open access appointment model that allows anyone to walk in during our business hours and receive an initial assessment the same day. After your assessment, our mental health professionals will make recommendations based on your needs and concerns. You may receive referrals for medication management, case management, or individual or group therapy.

We accept Medicaid, Medicare, and private insurance. Wyandot BHN also offers services at a reduced, set fee, or at no cost based on clinical need for qualifying persons.
