Group Therapy - Assessment and Intake
Before you can join a therapy group, you'll need to go through an assessment process to see if the group will meet your needs. The interview is a chance for you to meet the facilitators of the group and ask them any questions you may have. During this process the facilitators are aiming to select participants who will contribute towards establishing a constructive dynamic for the group. This may include consideration of gender, culture, age and personality types. We typically receive more applications for the groups than we have places. This inevitably means that we cannot offer a place to every applicant. If this process will cause you distress you may wish to reconsider applying.
What? When? Where?
All group therapy sessions take place at the ACON offices in Sydney.
