Are you looking for depression group therapy meetups and support groups for anxiety and depression in the New York City area? We are also serving New Jersey residents (via telehealth online). When people are feeling anxious, sad or depressed it may make them feel as though nowhere makes them feel comfortable. This may cause them to not want to leave their home, further isolating themselves, which can make them feel worse.
Also dealing with ongoing anxiety issues can lead to secondary depression where you experience the following: hopelessness, suicidal thoughts, restlessness, indecisiveness, weightloss / weight gain, insomnia, worthlessness, fatigue, and lack of enjoyment in life, all of which can impact your day to day functioning.Â
The pandemic and smartphones enabled this isolation even further as people did not need to leave the house to work remotely, order takeout, groceries, or even attend virtual doctor appointments. The problem is being alone with your thoughts may lead to a continuing cycle of negative ruminating thoughts. Â
The good news is that research studies have shown that social interaction is an effective way to combat depression and anxiety disorders. Regular interaction with others has been shown to encourage a positive outlook and bolster confidence.Â
If you or someone you know is suffering from depression or anxiety, group therapy can be a great tool (and can be integrated with individual therapy) for people with all types of depression.Â
Vibrant Women Wellness Counseling runs group therapy sessions which are a form of psychotherapy that involve one or more licensed therapists (and sometimes therapists working towards their license) that work with several people at the same time.Â
Sharing in a group setting can be a key part of getting people out of their shells, and group therapy is an ideal way to accomplish this.
Vibrant Women Wellness Counseling uses evidence-based programs, including depression and anxiety therapy groups to improve the quality of life for people seeking mental health services.Â
