Cy-Hope Counseling Offering 5 Group Therapy Opportunities This Fall

September 15 2023

Like physical health, mental health is an important component of our overall wellbeing that has a profound impact on our quality of life. Taking care of our mental health comes in many forms, like actively pursuing our personal hobbies and interests, volunteering, and spending quality time with those you love and care about. Whether you are faced with challenging and stressful relationships within your family, a personal need of a struggling child or family member, or an individual need for yourself, therapy could help navigate those situations with meaningful, long-lasting strategies that have a lasting, positive impact.

When the word "therapy" comes to mind, many think of individual therapy, which involves a client speaking one-on-one with a therapist. For many, this is a perfect environment to share openly and freely, and for others, it might not be the best fit.  Group settings can help participants more easily and organically solve issues while finding common ground with their peers. And for some, both individual and group therapy can prove to be helpful. Neither form of therapy is the "right" form - it's a matter of what is most comfortable and effective for the individual. 

Whether you prefer one-on-one settings, groups or both, support is available right here in the Cy-Fair community. Cy-Hope Counseling, located on Telge in Cypress, offers individual and group therapy, with fall groups kicking off during the week of October 2, 2023. Cy-Hope's counseling groups offer children and teens an opportunity to connect and relate over common struggles and issues, while also giving participants of all ages a safe and supportive environment to practice social skills and make friends. The group setting also allows children and teens to benefit from therapeutic intervention with a licensed therapist while also interacting with peers who experience life in similar ways. And they've been cultivating this environment through group counseling for ten years.

With many group clients returning each semester, registration typically fills up quickly. Groups range in size from four to ten participants, based on the ages of the targeted population. All groups run for six weeks and meet once per week in counseling offices or in one of Cy-Hope's larger rooms dedicated to group experiences. Cy-Hope's fall group lineup includes:
