Videos to make group therapy awesome!

If you are like me, you sometimes get antsy in sessions. I think our clients like to move around a bit too, especially kids, teens, and families. I have developed several programs where we use activities to meet therapeutic goals. But somethings, it is not always possible to get clients out sailing or hiking.

I did a series of videos for our local community college. These show how to build teams within the classroom, but these are some of the same activities that I use in my counseling private practice with my clients, families, and students.

Group Therapy Exercise 1: Comfort, Growth, and Panic

Group Therapy Exercise 2: The Handshake

Group Therapy Exercise 3: Group Juggle

Group Therapy Exercise 4: The Train
