Wednesdays 5pm IST
90 minute session
This is a slow-open group which will run for a minimum of 3 years. Membership range between 5 to 8 members. Members are expected to commit to attending regularly.
Group analytic psychotherapy is a unique and intensive form of therapy that offers you a link between experiencing your difficulties in isolation to helping you feel belonged, understood and challenged in the stories and experiences of others. These groups offer a rich learning experience for you as a social being as you begin to observe how you relate to others and how you are experienced by them while you address personal challenges. Depression, anxiety, difficult life transitions, loss of a loved one, difficulty in intimate relationships in the family, work or other settings are some of the concerns you can bring to your group.
