Psychoeducational Groups

Psychoeducational groups are a form of group therapy that is less focused on developing relationships between clients, and instead, focused on providing education through information-sharing and the development of healthy coping mechanisms. Rather than allowing the group to guide the direction of therapy sessions, a qualified therapist leads discussions and guides clients by setting goals. Psychoeducational groups often focus on mental health conditions and help clients learn about potential triggers, how to develop healthy coping mechanisms, and how to avoid pitfalls in the future.
