In group psychotherapy, a group of individuals meet with a therapist to address issues such as emotional growth, personal problem-solving, social skill development, and relationship enhancement. When clients are children below the teen years, play and games are an essential feature of the group. Group therapy can be particularly helpful in helping clients feel understood, accepted, and connected to others. It is an excellent vehicle for individuals to develop skills to cope with stress and manage their relationships. It can also be an excellent way for children and teens to develop social skills.
