Healing That Happens in Community

There is something that individual therapy alone cannot replicate: the experience of being truly seen and understood by peers who are navigating their own struggles. Group therapy harnesses the unique power of shared experience — the moments of recognition, the relief of realizing you are not alone, and the courage that comes from witnessing others do the hard work alongside you.

What Group Therapy Looks like

Our groups typically include six to ten members and are facilitated by an experienced group therapist. Sessions meet weekly and run 75 to 90 minutes. Membership is consistent, which means the same people show up each week, building trust and depth over time.

Group therapy at Gather is not a support group, a psychoeducation class, or a drop-in session. It is real clinical therapy conducted in a group setting. The group becomes a living laboratory for understanding how you relate to others — and for practicing new, healthier ways of connecting.

Everything shared in group is confidential. We establish clear agreements at the outset, and your therapist actively maintains a safe, respectful environment where every voice matters and no one is pressured to share before they are ready.

How Group Therapy Can Help

Group therapy offers something individual therapy cannot — the chance to grow in relationship with others, in real time, with real feedback and real connection.

Current Groups at Gather

Group Therapy for Therapists. This therapy group is intended just for mental health providers as a place to gain support and explore both professional and personal concerns. You carry others' burdens. Let us help you carry yours. This will be co-led by Nathaniel and Libbey. In person. Forming now. Time TBD.

General Therapy Group. This group is open to any adults. We will explore together the stresses and concerns that you carry. We will also explore your strengths and interpersonal patterns through the "here-and-now" of the group process. This will be led by Nathaniel. In person. Time TBD.

Nathaniel is also running a virtual experiential training group for mental health providers. To learn more about that, see our Training and Supervision page.

Areas We Address

Our groups are designed around the issues that most benefit from relational, community-based healing:

Is GroupTherapy Right for Me?

It is completely natural to have reservations. What if I don't want to share? What if I cry? What if I know someone? These are among the most common concerns people have before joining a group — and every single one of them is valid and welcome.

You will never be forced to share before you are ready. Crying is not only acceptable, it is often a sign that something important is happening. And the likelihood of knowing someone is small — but even if it happens, it can be navigated with care and clear boundaries.

Here is what we hear most often from people who were nervous at the start: group ended up being the most transformative part of their entire therapy experience. There is something that happens when you stop performing and start being real with a room full of people doing the same thing. Walls come down. Patterns become visible. And healing happens in ways that surprise everyone — including the therapist.



If you are curious whether group therapy might be right for you, we offer a free 15-minute consultation to talk it through. No pressure, no commitment — just an honest conversation about what you are looking for and whether group could be part of it.
