Group therapy is a specific form of psychotherapy that is provided by one or more therapists, to a group of people, at the same time. Studies show that when administered properly, group therapy can be as effective as individual therapy.
dThe guiding principle of group therapy for substance abuse is “power in numbers.” The ultimate goal of group therapy is to create a sense of belonging or relatability through understanding, which happens when group members share their common experiences with drug and alcohol addiction. Group therapy provides those in recovery from substance use disorders with peer support and accountability in an environment where they can learn new skills and coping mechanisms from each other.
This article explains group therapy, including how it works, what it helps with, and who it is for.

What Is Group Therapy?
The first recorded session of group psychotherapy was in 1906, when Dr. J. H. Pratt, a Boston physician, provided group instruction about home care to tuberculosis patients. While working with these patients he noticed the beneficial emotional side effects that occurred as a result of these group sessions.
Group therapy was then proven especially helpful in the 1940s in treating World War II veterans who had experienced trauma as a result of combat. In 1944, the US Army released a report commending the benefits of group therapy. It’s since become an increasingly popular type of therapy.
Today, group therapy is very common and is frequently used to treat a wide range of addiction and co-occurring mental health conditions, including:
- Anxiety
- Anger management
- Bipolar disorder
- Depression
- Eating disorders
- Phobias
- Substance abuse
Group therapy is offered in a variety of different settings, including:
- Addiction treatment centers
- Community centers
- Correctional facilities
- Hospitals
- Mental health clinics
- Private practices
Group Therapy vs Individual Psychotherapy
Techniques used in group therapy differ from those employed in individual therapy. Individual therapy consists of one-on-one sessions where the therapist focuses on the individual feelings and needs of the patient. During group therapy, the therapist often facilitates discussions amongst group members which are designed to help people share experiences and work towards solutions to problems together.
Whether group therapy or individual therapy is most effective depends entirely on the individual and their unique needs. It’s common for people who are recovering from substance abuse to participate in both individual and group therapy. When paired together, individual therapy and group therapy complement each other as part of a comprehensive addiction treatment program.
General Characteristics of a Group
According to the American Psychological Association, therapy groups can be of any size but usually contain 5-15 people on average. Sessions are commonly held on a weekly basis and last 1-2 hours.
Group sessions are designed to be either open or closed. Open groups allow members to join at any time. Whereas, closed groups are made up of a specific group of people who all become members at the same time.
Some patients will only do group therapy, whereas others may attend group sessions alongside individual therapy and other treatments. Group therapy may occur more frequently (e.g. on a daily basis) if an individual is enrolled in an inpatient addiction treatment program or participating in a self-help support group, such as Alcoholics Anonymous.
Types of Group Therapy for Addiction Treatment
There are several different kinds of group therapy commonly used in treating substance use disorders. According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), they generally fall into one of the following types of therapeutic models:
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT
These psychotherapy groups are focused on relapse prevention and helping people develop new skills and coping mechanisms, including how to manage difficult emotions like anger.
Interpersonal process psychology groups
This form of psychotherapy is focused on working through trauma that may have occurred in an addict’s life. Processing these experiences provides individuals with deeper insight into their own behaviors, which leads toward personal acceptance.
Psychoeducational groups
Psychoeducational groups are a form of group therapy that is focused on providing education through peer information-sharing and the development of healthy coping mechanisms. During sessions, a qualified therapist leads the discussion, encouraging group members to share their experiences and set goals.
Skills development groups
This form of group therapy is designed to help people develop, hone and practice skills that are required to remain abstinent and avoid relapse. This typically includes relaxation training, meditation, and life skills training.
Support groups
Substance abuse recovery groups are voluntary associations of people who share a common desire to overcome their addiction. They are focused on providing relapse prevention and peer support.
Other forms of group therapy include:
Many support groups such as Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and Narcotics Anonymous (NA) use the 12-step model, where members work on their recovery with the help of a sponsor, whom they can call for guidance, or when they’re at risk of relapsing. In lieu of a trained therapist, group sessions are usually led by a fellow group member who is also in recovery. It’s common for people to continue to attend 12-step groups for many years.
Non-12-step programs
These include Self-Management and Recovery Training (SMART) Recovery, Women for Sobriety, Secular Organizations for Sobriety (S.O.S.), LifeRing Secular Recovery, and more.
Relapse prevention groups
This form of group therapy is designed to provide continuous relapse prevention support through a combination of psychological education that discusses the consequences of addiction, cognitive behavioral therapy, and skills development.
Expressive groups
These groups are focused on providing experiential therapy through art, drama, music, and other group activities.
Culturally specific groups
These recovery groups offer culturally specific support and activities.
Benefits of Group Therapy for Addiction Recovery
Recovering from a substance use disorder can feel isolating. Group therapy provides an opportunity for people in recovery from substance abuse to learn more about themselves, and their relationships with others, while being surrounded by a small community of people who have similar issues and experiences.
Group therapy provides members with a sense of belonging and acceptance, which can help boost confidence and self-esteem. Overall, sharing experiences and emotions with one’s peers has shown to reduce stress, guilt, and shame among group members.
As a result, group therapy becomes a place in which members can learn how to avoid engaging in destructive behaviors, such as seeking out substances, and instead, practice new, healthy coping behaviors alongside their peers.
Group therapy also provides psychologists with a unique perspective. Instead of relying on a patient’s self-reports, in a group setting, therapists can observe relational patterns in action, as individuals reveal their struggles through interactions with other group members.
Many of the underlying root causes of addiction stem from traumas that happened in groups (I.e. family, school, religion). During therapy sessions, the therapy group acts as a stand-in for one’s family of origin. This provides individuals with the opportunity to address and heal old wounds derived from past group settings (for example, social anxiety, low self-esteem and interpersonal conflicts) in a way that’s simply not possible in individual sessions.
Goals of Group Therapy
The goals for group therapy are based on specific therapeutic elements, designed to achieve a range of positive benefits. These include:
Altruism
Group therapy encourages people to step outside of themselves and find ways to be in service of others.
Corrective recapitulation
The family-like setting of group therapy can help people work through conflicts they may have within their family of origin.
Catharsis
By providing a safe space, group members are able to give voice to difficult feelings and experiences they may not have been comfortable sharing in other settings.
Existential factors
Group therapy helps individuals work through daily stressors
Instillation of hope
Being amongst group members with similar issues and hearing how they’ve overcome challenges gives people a sense of hope that recovery is possible.
Imparting information
By sharing personal experiences with each other, group members are able to gain knowledge about how to manage recovery.
Imitative behaviors
Through group therapy, participants have the opportunity to learn new coping skills from the behaviors of other members that help them maintain sobriety.
Interpersonal learning
Group therapy teaches participants about interpersonal connections and how to form relationships.
Group cohesiveness
Members receive a sense of acceptance and belonging from group therapy.
Universality
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nunc eu ultrices augue, fermentum sodales magna.
Socializing techniques
Group therapy helps people feel less alone while teaching valuable social skills.
Development of Self-Awareness
Group therapy enhances self-awareness through peer feedback and recognizing personal behaviors affecting recovery and relationships.
How Group Therapy Helps Treat Substance Abuse
According to SAMHSA, group therapy is designed to help people in recovery move through the six stages of recovery. These include:
Pre-contemplation
In this stage of recovery, individuals are not yet considering changing their substance abuse because they do not think they have a serious problem. They are attending group therapy because other factors led them there (e.g. family, friends, a therapist, or the legal system).
Contemplation
While attending group sessions and receiving guidance from a therapist, the individuals begin to consider altering their consumption or quitting substances altogether.
Preparation
The patient may still be using substances, but now recognizes the benefits of quitting.
Action
At this point, the individual chooses a strategy to end their substance abuse. They begin making the necessary changes to follow through with a plan, alongside the support of the therapist and other group members.
Maintenance
The individual works tirelessly to remain abstinent and avoid relapsing. At this point, some people achieve full recovery.
Recurrence
Since the individual has gained a better understanding of themselves and their behavior while attending group therapy, if a relapse occurs, it’s easier for them to return to the maintenance stage.
Group Therapy With Other Treatments
Depending on the severity of the addiction and the substances being abused, the patient may need to undergo medical detox and medication-assisted treatment before they’re able to begin group therapy.
For example, individuals with an opioid use disorder may require medications such as methadone or buprenorphine to manage withdrawal symptoms. Often, mental health professionals will determine when an individual is ready for group therapy. Depending on the patient and the type of group therapy, a therapist may refer them to group therapy immediately or, alternately, once they reach the maintenance phase.
What to Expect in a Group Therapy Session
During group therapy, chairs are often arranged in a circle so that everyone in the group is able to see each other during the session. However, if the group is larger, seating may be arranged in rows facing a podium. While therapy sessions vary depending on the type of group therapy, group sessions tend to have the following structure:
- Introduction
Members introduce themselves and briefly state why they are attending group therapy. This may occur at the start of group therapy, at the beginning of every session, or whenever a new group member joins if it’s an open group. Introductions may also include ice-breaker activities designed for group members to get to know each other. During this portion of group therapy, it’s common for group members to test each other’s boundaries. While this can be jarring initially, it can lead to deeper, more beneficial work as therapy progresses.
2. Updates
Next, returning group members may opt to share updates and experiences since the last group session.
3. Group discussion
The facilitator or therapist will then decide what shape the meeting will take. This may involve group discussion amongst members or a focused educational session.
In addition to the above, the group therapist or facilitator may also use a variety of different learning tools, including, audio and visual aids, homework, memory improvement techniques, written projects, and role-playing.
How Long Does Group Therapy Last?
The length of time an individual will remain in group therapy depends on a variety of factors, including the type of therapy being administered, a person’s level of motivation to participate, and what stage of recovery they’re in.
Substance abuse treatment programs often require patients to attend a minimum number of sessions over a set period of time (e.g. 6 sessions over a 3-month period). However, group therapy sessions lasting up to one year may also be recommended. These kinds of therapy sessions usually take place at an outpatient rehab center or as part of an intensive outpatient program.
If an individual is being treated at an inpatient treatment center, they may attend group therapy daily for the duration of their stay.
Lastly, if an individual is in the maintenance stage of recovery, they may choose to join a support group, 12-step group, or another relapse prevention group, for peer accountability and support. In the case of 12-step groups, many people are active members for years.
How Effective is Group Therapy in Treating Addictions?
According to the American Psychological Association (APA), group therapy works as well as individual therapy for many conditions. Over 50 clinical trials have compared patients who participated in individual or group treatment, and all studies found that both formats produced the same level of improvement for a variety of mental health and substance use disorders.
Studies have also shown that interacting with peers during group therapy provides unique therapeutic benefits. In fact, according to Stanford University’s Irvin David Yalom, MD, author of the 2005 book “The Theory and Practice of Group Psychology,” participating in group therapy with one’s peers may be more helpful than receiving guidance from a therapist since people are more likely to connect and identify with their peers.
Support groups such as 12-step programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) can also be very effective in helping people in recovery from substance abuse. In fact, the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism looked at people who were formally treated, informally treated (attended AA meetings), and untreated individuals who suffered from alcohol abuse, and found that 49% of individuals who attended AA were abstinent, as compared to 46% of people who received formal treatment.
It’s also important to note that group therapy exceeds the APA’s Society of Clinical Psychology’s standards for efficacy in treating bipolar disorder, major depressive disorder, panic disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), social phobias, obsessive-compulsive disorder, bulimia nervosa, binge-eating disorder, substance use disorder, schizophrenia, borderline personality disorder, and general personality disorder.
Questions to Ask When Considering Group Therapy
While group therapy is known to be effective in treating substance abuse disorders, research shows that it is most effective when the group members have a common identity and a sense of shared purpose.
Furthermore, research shows that two leaders or group therapists are better than one. Members of co-led groups experience greater benefits than those who participate in individually led groups. An additional person who can listen and respond makes a difference when group leaders are trying to follow multiple interactions.
Therefore, it’s important to find a group therapy scenario that is well-suited to your personal needs. Before choosing group therapy, here are some questions to consider.
Is the topic or theme specific to what you’re experiencing?
Is the demographic of the group (e.g. age, gender) appropriate and one that you’d feel comfortable in?
Is it an open or closed group? Which do you prefer?
Can you easily access the group meetings?
Does the group therapy schedule work with yours so that you can attend consistently and on time?
Is the cost affordable? Will you have to pay out of pocket or do you have some coverage through an insurance plan?
If you’re unsure of what kind of group therapy would be best, speak with a mental health professional. They’ll be able to provide you with the necessary information so you can make the best decision for you or your loved one.
Cost of Group Therapy
The cost of group therapy varies based on factors such as location, frequency of treatment, and individual insurance coverage. However, group therapy is often up to half the cost of individual therapy, which makes it an attractive option for many people.
Group therapy is usually offered as part of an inpatient or outpatient addiction treatment program and therefore, included in the overall cost of rehab.
Insurance
Depending on your insurance plan, the cost of group therapy may be covered to a certain extent. Many insurance plans will cover group therapy as long as it is evidence-based, run by a professional, and medically necessary.
Additionally, individuals may also receive coverage if group therapy is part of a comprehensive addiction treatment program. Under the Affordable Care Act in the United States, substance abuse treatment must be covered under ACA insurance plans. ACA plans also can’t disqualify you for having a pre-existing substance use disorder or cap spending on addiction treatment. Many private medical insurance providers also offer addiction treatment coverage to varying degrees.
When researching which rehab options that include group therapy, consult your insurance provider to find out what kind of coverage is available.
Free and Low-cost Group Therapy Options
In addition to the options outlined above, many free and low-cost group therapy options exist. Addiction recovery support groups and 12-Step programs such as Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and Narcotics Anonymous (NA) are usually free, although you may be asked to contribute to operational costs such as room rental, coffee, and snacks.
Your doctor is a valuable source of local information. They will be able to put you in touch with support groups and group therapy providers in your area that work in addiction recovery.
Risks and Drawbacks of Group Therapy
Although there are many benefits to group therapy, there are also drawbacks that make it not suitable for everyone.
Less private
Group therapy often requires that participants share their personal struggles with the group. People with social anxiety or those who have a fear of public speaking may find group therapy uncomfortable and therefore, be better suited to individual therapy.
Confidentiality
While it’s easy to keep what’s shared in individual therapy confidential between the patient and the therapist, this becomes more difficult in a group setting. Individuals who are very private and concerned about confidentiality may find individual therapy a better fit.
Lack of individual attention
During group therapy, individuals are required to share the stage with other members. People with more severe mental health issues or those who are prone to downplaying their struggles in a group setting may benefit more from the one-on-one approach provided by individual therapy.
Member dropout
Facilitator drawbacks
Unless a facilitator is a licensed mental health professional, they may not be equipped to deal with some of the issues that arise in group therapy. Poor leadership from a facilitator is also a risk factor.
Interpersonal conflicts
If someone is prone to conflict in their interpersonal relationships they might not get along with certain group members.
Not recommended for people experiencing mental health crises
For example, someone who is feeling suicidal or in need of medical detoxification should seek emergency healthcare services, not attend a group therapy session.
Get Help With Addiction Group Therapy

I cannot say enough wonderful words to describe this center. I LOVED every single employee there. Every single one treated me with genuine kindness and compassion. Detox is rough on some people and they never ever made me feel embarrassed or uncomfortable. I stayed for 21 days and was so sad to leave. Mixed emotions. I made many new friends that were also in the program. But the therapists and nurses all have a special place in my heart. Much laughter, many tears (I’m an emotional person) and the feeling of finally finding a safe space where all of the things that I share stay there. My therapist still calls to check on me, love Mariah! My nurse practitioner Savannah, always listened to my questions and needs with such sincerity, I am truly blessed to have met her as well.

That’s the benefit of Banyan Castle Rock in Castle Rock, Colorado. An essential part of the recovery journey is discovering new ways | Treatments Programs Payment Options | View Website (855) 913-1797 | I was referred to Banyan by Sandstone, a facility in Denver. Originally from Northern Colorado, I was hesitant at first. However, upon my arrival, I was impressed by the dedication, professionalism, and exceptional therapists. While there are some logistical improvements that a new company like Banyan can make, they still deserve five stars for their impactful work in transforming lives. I arrived homeless and hopeless, despite minor issues typical of new facilities, I experienced significant success. I left with an apartment and received excellent therapy recommendations. No other facility offers a residential curriculum like this one. The director is passionate about what they do and takes the time to converse and give examples in Laymans terms to help the patients understand exactly what is going on with their physical body and brain. To see your director interact with humility is the most endearing feeling to people that may be fearful to be inquisitive of the care. Special shout out to CASS & SCOTT all therapist are highly intelligent and create a diverse group therapy everyday is different. Keep up the great work, continue to promote inclusion and diversity, and to take people in strife and make them a success rate to society. Thank you everyone at Banyan! Best, Brineth.

I was given the ultimatum that if couldn’t get clean from alcohol and marijuana, then I would be removed from my children’s lives and have no chance of getting custody back. As an addict I just didn’t see me able to do this alone. I Google searched top rehabs in Oklahoma, and came across Boca Recovery. When I spoke to a recruiter they informed me that the facility was not in Oklahoma, but he told me not to panic. If I was ready, then all I had to worry about was making sure I was going to board on my scheduled flight. It seemed too good to be true, but sure enough they delivered and made sure I made it there safely. As soon as I stepped foot into the facility the staff treated me with the best care. Not only that, but the facility was very well maintained. You’re seen by a nurse the first day, and they set you up with everything you’ll need for the detox process. All therapist and case managers work together to build the best treatment plan that suits the patient/client. Not to mention the food they provide is amazing! Thanks to Boca recovery I have passed every UA since I’ve been out, and am able to be involved in my children’s lives again. Before arriving to Boca I didn’t see any of this being possible. Highly recommend to anyone struggling with addiction!

BOCA saved my life. It offered me safety, stability, and daily expectations that I needed desperately. From the first day of entering the program the techs were welcoming, understanding, and supportive which eased my anxiety and allowed me to relax. The clinical staff I worked with is amazing and they helped me begin to understand why I needed to be there and pushed me to see that I also deserved happiness and peace of mind. The community that was created during my stay is one that is with me for life. Lifelong friendships have been created and we stay in touch to this day which has been critical for my sense of belonging. Thank you to BOCA in the city of Bloomington, Indiana; you are the starting point to my path of recovery.

This was not our first stop on her journey, however this was her first rehab for drug/substance use. When asked if it was beneficial, she has not hesitated to say YES.

I went through sandstone twice. Once when I was 18 and again when I was 19. At the time I was not willing to admit that I had a problem with substances. I thought I had everything figured out. The years after I had graduated the program I was able to prove to myself that I still knew nothing about my alcoholism. I am grateful for sandstone since I wouldn’t have even been able to have any type of knowledge about my own substance use if it wasn’t for the amazing staff over at sandstone. They helped me get my foot through the door into the world of recovery. I don’t know where I would be without sandstone and I am beyond grateful for the effort the staff puts in to help people with their mental health/substance abuse. I now have a great relationship with my family, a true connection with my friends and most important I have a life worth living now. That is just the surface of what recovery has brought into my life. I have sandstone to thank for that!

Things I loved Sandstone Care
1) Group therapy, and learning new skills.
2) Once enrolled you can also schedule individual therapy.
3) After graduating the program you are invited to Alumni events. So you always feel connected to the program and get to meet previous graduates of the program. Some events I’ve been to were Lantern Festival, Animal sanctuary, Game Nights, and many more. There are also zoom sessions.
I really am thankful for the Alumni group and coordinators for always checking in.

Dana Point, CA 92624
| South Shores Recovery is a dual-diagnosis drug rehab and substance use treatment facility in Dana Point, California. They serve adult men and women with detox and outpatient programs.. The treatment center creates a trauma-informed individualized curriculum for every client, comprising conventional, evidence-based treatments like cognitive behavior | Treatments Programs Payment Options | View Website (877) 527-2150 | The club no one wants to belong to is waiting for you. Let’s be honest: Nobody wakes up thinking it’s a good day to stop their addiction and go to rehabilitation. The fear of losing my old way of living (which wasn’t productive or making me happy) kept me looking through the distorted lens of the bottle.
I thought other people needed rehabilitation, but South Shore completely transformed my life in ways I never even dared to imagine. The journey began reluctantly, much like the late Amy Winehouse’s famous song “Rehab.” The thought of going to rehab felt like a last resort, and the stigma around it was daunting. But addiction doesn’t discriminate, affecting people from every walk of life, including successful writers with master’s degrees, licenses in medical sciences, and television fitness personalities like myself.
When I arrived, South Shore’s safe and serene environment provided the perfect backdrop for healing. The 24/7 medical support was a lifeline during detox, ensuring that I was comfortable and safe as I began to purge the toxins from my body. The detox process was supervised by compassionate professionals who made it as smooth as possible.
South Shore’s approach is holistic, focusing on mind, body, and spirit. The Big Book of AA, which I previously scoffed at, now serves as the cornerstone of my recovery. Through various therapies, including yoga, meditation, and surfing, I found new ways to connect with myself and the world around me. The sessions at the beach were particularly transformative, allowing me to heal in the midst of inspiring natural beauty. My only critique is that due to varying physical capabilities among participants, some of the best hikes and views from atop the cliffs were not attainable due to strenuous challenges. However, this experience taught me tolerance and acceptance.
Education is a cornerstone of the program. I learned so much about the nature of addiction, why I drank, and most importantly, how to stay sober. The individualized treatment plans were tailored to my unique needs and adapted as I progressed. This personalized care was crucial in addressing the underlying issues that fueled my addiction.
One of the most surprising joys was discovering a supportive community. In group therapy and 12-Step meetings, I found my tribe. The camaraderie and understanding among fellow participants were invaluable. The program’s emphasis on community and peer support continues to be a cornerstone of my recovery. During my stay, I learned to achieve and maintain abstinence from substances, develop strategies to manage cravings and triggers, practice healthy coping skills, build a support network of peers, mentors, or sponsors, and engage in therapy to address the underlying issues contributing to substance use.
Recovery is not just about abstaining from substances; it’s about discovering a new way of life. South Shore gave me the tools to cope with cravings and prevent relapse. The skills and strategies I developed during my stay have been essential in maintaining my sobriety.
The support doesn’t end when you leave. South Shore’s continuing care and alumni programs ensure that you remain connected and supported long after you’ve left the facility. The lifelong membership in the South Shore community means that help is always available when needed.
Choosing rehab was the best decision I ever made. South Shore not only helped me break free from the chains of addiction but also gave me a fresh perspective and a renewed outlook on life. If you’re struggling with addiction, take that first step. It’s not the end of the road; it’s the beginning of a new journey.
Thank you, South Shore, for giving me my life back (not to mention my husband, children, and chance at a successful career!)

When I got to South Shores I was at my rock bottom, I was completely miserable and broken. The staff there helped me build myself back up and become functional again. They gave me the tools and the resources that I needed so
I could remain successful when I left impatient.
From the therapist down to the technicians you can’t miss. Each one of them are overly qualified and are beyond knowledgeable about recovery. Matt is an absolute legend, his groups will truly humble any man or woman. The fact that he can get down onto your level share his story and current problems truly shows how important honesty and working the program is. Jamison is an amazing tech and has so much knowledge. Don’t be afraid to seek his guidance, I learned just as much from him as I did anyone! They also have an amazing support system after you leave the program. Brian has been in contact with me multiple times a week, what’s shows me that they truly do care about your well being. But at the end of the day you’re only going to get what you put into it. It’s going to take a lot of work and the willingness to be valuable. I took everything I could possibly get from them. And even though I loved it there the only way I’ll go back is to show others what South Shores helped me have. That’s peace, love, happiness, joy and the gift of being sober. Thank you South Shore’s for helping me find my greener grass!
