Group Therapy
Manalapan, NJ

At Positive Reset Mental Health Clinic in Manalapan, New Jersey, we believe healing is often strongest in community. Our group therapy program offers a structured, supportive setting where individuals facing similar challenges can come together to share, learn, and grow. Guided by licensed therapists, these sessions help participants build resilience, practice coping skills, and experience the healing power of human connection.

Why Group Therapy Matters

Group therapy responds to a deep human need: the need to feel understood. Many people struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or life transitions also feel isolated. In our groups, individuals realize they’re not alone—and that shared experience brings validation, hope, and emotional relief.

Benefits of Group Therapy

  • Support Through Shared Experience: Listening to others who “get it” helps reduce shame and isolation while encouraging self-acceptance.
  • New Insights and Tools: Seeing how others navigate similar struggles can spark fresh ideas and strategies for your own growth.
  • Motivation and Accountability: Group members often inspire each other to stay committed, creating a sense of mutual encouragement.
  • Stronger Confidence:
  • Sharing your story and receiving support builds self-esteem and courage to face challenges head-on.
  • Practice for Real Life: Group settings provide a safe space to improve communication, emotional regulation, and boundary-setting.
  • Accessible and Affordable: Group therapy is a cost-effective option that still delivers powerful clinical results.
  • Whole-Person Growth: It strengthens not just your mental health, but also your relationships, self-awareness, and sense of purpose.

Meeting a Wide Range of Needs

Group therapy is helpful for people managing:

  • Anxiety and panic disorders
  • Depression and mood imbalances
  • Grief and loss
  • Trauma and PTSD
  • Identity and self-esteem issues
  • Life transitions or relationship challenges
  • LGBTQ+ support and gender-affirming care
  • Adolescent struggles and emotional regulation

Whether you’re newly diagnosed or seeking support for ongoing issues, group therapy can be a meaningful and effective addition to your care plan.

What to Expect in Group Sessions

At Positive Reset Manalapan, groups are typically composed of 6–12 individuals and meet once per week for 60–90 minutes. Each session is led by a licensed mental health provider who ensures the environment is structured, respectful, and confidential.

Some groups are open (ongoing membership) while others are closed (a set group for a specific duration). Topics vary but may include emotional resilience, managing anxiety, healthy relationships, trauma recovery, and more.

Is Group Therapy Right for You?

Group therapy works best for individuals who are open to sharing, listening, and learning in a group environment. It’s a great option for those who want peer connection in addition to—or instead of—individual therapy. If you’re unsure, our team can help you decide whether to begin with group support, individual sessions, or both.


Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is group therapy, and how does it work?2025-09-03T23:02:08+00:00

Group therapy is a form of mental health treatment where a small group of individuals meets regularly with a licensed therapist to explore common concerns, develop coping strategies, and support one another. It offers a space where participants can share experiences, listen to others, and practice new ways of thinking and relating in a safe, structured setting.

What kinds of issues can group therapy help with?2025-09-03T23:02:27+00:00

Group therapy is effective for a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, stress management, relationship problems, identity concerns, emotional regulation, and more. Many people find comfort in knowing they’re not alone—and healing often happens faster with the support of others who truly understand.

Will I be required to speak in every session?2025-09-03T23:02:43+00:00

You’re encouraged to participate, but no one is forced to speak. Many people find that simply listening during the first few sessions is helpful. Over time, as trust builds, sharing often feels more natural. Your comfort level is always respected, and your therapist will guide you in a way that feels safe and supportive.

How is group therapy different from individual therapy?2025-09-03T23:03:01+00:00

While individual therapy focuses on one-on-one attention, group therapy provides the added benefit of peer feedback and community support. It helps you see your struggles from new perspectives, builds interpersonal skills, and can feel more dynamic. Many clients find that combining both types of therapy leads to deeper, more lasting change.

Is everything I say in group therapy confidential?2025-09-03T23:03:15+00:00

Confidentiality is a key part of creating a safe space in group therapy. While your therapist is ethically bound to maintain confidentiality, all group members are asked to agree to privacy guidelines and treat each other’s stories with respect and discretion. What’s shared in the group stays in the group.

Do I need to be in therapy already to join a group?2025-09-03T23:03:33+00:00

Not necessarily. Some people begin their mental health journey with group therapy, while others add it to an existing individual therapy plan. At Positive Reset Manalapan, we’ll help you decide what kind of care will support you best.
