Group therapy differs from other types of counseling in many ways, most obviously in the number of people attending the sessions. This setting stimulates new ways of expressing thoughts and feelings, as well as receiving the feedback of others.
Relationships between group members are generally "baggage free" fostering open interaction and encouraging risk taking, lessening concerns about embarrassment or of being judged. The group environment provides opportunities for all members to learn and grow from shared experiences.
