You're not the only one
Struggling with sexual addiction issues can leave you feeling very alone and like no one understands what you’re going through. Due to the perceived stigma, it can be hard to share openly, which hinders many from getting help. Group sessions are an integral component of the Gentle Path treatment program. When one person in a group shares his experience, everyone in the group gains by realizing how those topics and themes relate to their own lives. Feeling connected to a group of peers also alleviates a lot of shame and reminds participants that they’re not alone on this path.
It’s a misconception that all “real” progress is made in solo therapy sessions. One-on-one therapy is an important part of the treatment process, but it’s in groups that patients find community, camaraderie, and peer support that can lead to important insights and provide the framework for lasting recovery.
Group therapy is an integral part of our comprehensive program for a very strategic reason: It allows patients to identify with their peers and gain insight into their negative choices and behaviors from others who have been there. As patients form a community and learn from each other, they are better able to incorporate what they’re hearing from counselors and therapists.
Among other benefits, small group sessions:
Group therapy encourages patients to establish relationships with other members, creating long-term friendships and improved self-awareness. While away from family and friends during inpatient treatment, this group of imperfect people can mimic the family of origin, allowing issues to surface and be dealt with. As they work together to find freedom from addiction, trauma, and other mental health issues, they are reminded that they are not alone.
The process of treatment is to come alongside the patient and help them walk through their addiction and trauma issues.
