   • Group therapy helps you realize you’re not alone. “A big part of the group therapy experience is recognizing that others are struggling with very similar emotions and circumstances, so it’s helpful to have that support,” says Dr. Allison Chase, regional clinical director for Eating Recovery Center and Pathlight Mood and Anxiety Center.
   • Group therapy facilitates giving and receiving support. Giving and receiving support from others can even boost your overall health. When you feel good about helping someone else, or feel heard yourself, your brain releases dopamine, the “feel good” chemical messenger, into your body.
   • Group therapy gives you a voice. If you’re not used to it, it can be difficult to look inside yourself at how you’re feeling and expressing those thoughts and needs to others.
   • Group therapy helps you relate to others (and yourself) in healthier ways. Sometimes when you’re experiencing a mental health condition or traumatic event, your relationships can be affected, whether you realize it or not.
