ABC News Tackles the Topic of Group Therapy

Group Therapy is in the news quite a bit lately. ABC News recently did an interview with a New York therapist who spoke about why many people are turning to Group Therapy as an alternative to individual, one-on-one sessions.

At FindGroupTherapy.Com, we know that people are online searching for group therapy and there aren't a whole lot of resources for locating groups all in one location. We're working hard to become *the* source for this! Please remember to link to us and help us grow.

Cheers for tonight,
