Finding the right group therapy can be a transformative step towards healing and growth. Whether you’re seeking relief from stress, anxiety, or other challenges, connecting with others in a structured, supportive environment can make a significant difference. If you’ve been searching for “Group Therapy Near Me,” you’re in the right place. We recommend these four ways to help you find group therapy services near you.

(1) Directory of Certified Group Psychotherapists

The American Group Psychotherapy Association (AGPA) offers a robust directory to help you find certified group therapists. Visit their website and use the ‘Find A Certified Group Therapist’ button. This directory lists therapists who have met rigorous education and training standards to become a a Certified Group Psychotherapist. You can search by zip code to locate professionals in your area and review their profiles. Most listings include links to personal websites where you can find detailed information about their groups, fees, and locations.

(2) Psychology Today Website

Psychology Today is a comprehensive resource for finding therapists and support groups. Use their search feature to filter results based on your zip code, specific concerns, and other preferences. The directory includes a filter for ‘support groups,’ which can help you find relevant therapy groups, workshops, and classes. Psychology today is a great tool to help you do some “therapist shopping” and find group opportunities near you.

(3) Consider an Online Therapy Group

If you haven’t yet thought about online group options, you should! If local options are limited or you prefer the convenience of virtual meetings, online group therapy is a viable alternative to in-person groups. Many therapists transitioned to online groups during the COVID-19 pandemic and found that these virtual sessions offer comparable benefits to in-person meetings. Online groups provide:

• Access to High-Quality Leaders: Connect with experienced therapists regardless of location.
• Diverse Group Members: Engage with individuals from across the U.S. and beyond.
• Convenience: Attend sessions from home without commuting.
• Enhanced Anonymity: Enjoy increased privacy with members outside your local community.
• Comfort: Some find the virtual format less stimulating and easier to engage with.
