Group Therapy in the Time of COVID: Why You Should Give It a Shot

There are a plethora of different issues people are struggling with right now. Between skyrocketing Omicron COVID-19 cases, continued high unemployment rates, and the returned need for social distancing, the pandemic has created a greater need than ever before for social connections. Many people are stuck in small NYC apartments right now with little to no communication with the outside world (unless you count that text from your delivery person telling you your food has arrived).

So what can one do to forge that human connection and stop feeling so damn isolated in the time of corona? Here’s where group therapy comes in. You may have thought about individual therapy and may even already have an individual therapist. But have you ever given group therapy a thought? What better way to connect than in a group targeted for your specific issue led by an experienced clinician? You’ll be in good company.
