What are the benefits of group counseling?

Group counseling at Victory Recovery Partners offers many benefits and is an important component of your recovery. Group counseling takes advantage of your natural need to relate to others. 

Humans, in general, are social creatures. During times of stress, you may seek out other people who can relate to how you’re feeling.
