Problems in
love and work, as well as troubling symptoms like depression and anxiety,
often lead people to seek therapy. The therapists at the Dallas
Group Analytic Practice develop a helping relationship with each individual,
so that the symptoms that led to therapy can be safely explored and understood.
The support that group analytic psychotherapy provides allows for the
safe exploration of painful problems and resolution of the conflicts that
underlie them.
As trust develops, individuals
are free to explore their inner feelings related to anger, intimacy, and
spirituality. Before treatment, these feelings are frequently blocked
and unavailable in useful ways. Group analysis can often help individuals
see themselves in new ways; it can be thought of as emotional education
resulting in lasting changes. Therapy frequently ends with a greater
sense of personal freedom to make wise choices for oneself in one's community.
Yes. The
DGAP clinicians collectively have over 50 years experience in studying
and running psychotherapy groups. Throughout these many groups,
people have consistently made positive enduring changes in their lives.
There is also a great deal of research that has shown that psychotherapy is effective
and that group psychotherapy is as effective as individual psychotherapy
and in some cases more so.
This type of
therapy is effective for a broad range of problems:
Relationship
Difficulties
Depression
Fears
and Anxiety
Motivational
Problems
Life
Transitions
Stress
Emotional
Trauma
Sexual
Problems
Psychosomatic
Difficulties
Eating
Disorders
Those seeking
psychotherapy have valid concerns about their privacy. Therapy groups
develop a sense of trust that ensures members' commitment to one another's
privacy.
By focusing
on group therapy, we have found a way to bring our years of experience
together to offer an affordable in-depth therapy option. Group
is more and less than individual therapy. Not all individuals are
ready for group analytic psychotherapy. When group is not the treatment
of choice, individual psychotherapy, psychoanalysis, couples and family
therapy, medication or referral to our broad professional network is available.
Group members tend to work in group for 1 to 3 years. The groups
meet 40 weeks per year and the fee is averaged across 12 months.
