Groups are a powerful therapeutic medium that fosters individual and collective healing and growth. The Group Therapy Essentials Certificate program provides counseling practitioners (with any level of group experience) the advanced skills and insights necessary to design, structure, and facilitate effective therapeutic groups. Clinicians completing this 2-course program will:

  • Delve into the intricacies of group dynamics and a robust framework for understanding and developing group purpose
  • Explore a therapeutic approach that fosters deep growth and connections among group participants
  • Blend theoretical knowledge and practical applications to enhance your ability to create and maintain inclusive, growthful environments that promote healing and transformation
  • Explore real-world case studies and interactive scenarios

By the end of this program, you will be equipped to lead transformative group sessions that can significantly enhance your clients' progress, apply practical strategies in your practice, gain confidence in managing group dynamics, and empower your clients through effective group work.

Earning a certification, credential, or certificate in a specialty validates your knowledge and expertise and demonstrates your commitment to providing high-quality, evidence-based treatment. Upon completing the program, you'll receive your Group Therapy Essentials Certificate (GTEC) to be added to your existing credentials.
