People seek therapy for various reasons. Many come because they have problems establishing and maintaining healthy, close and gratifying relationships with others. Often, people desire to understand relationships better and wish that they could be honest about their positive and negative feelings with someone. In return, most people want honest feedback.
Group therapy attempts to set up a situation where this sort of honest, interpersonal exploration can transpire. Coppin State University Center for Counseling and Student Development (CCSD) offers a diverse array and plethora of group experiences that offer students an opportunity to identify with others who have similar interest, to increase self-awareness, learn alternative ways of looking at personal problems, and to practice being with others in a way that can improve and enrich the quality of each person's life and personal relationships. We offer both time-limited and long-term psychotherapy groups. Staff members are available for group consultation.
