Ever wonder what can happen in group therapy?
Below are some cherry picked excerpts from a recent interview in The Guardian that highlight the usefulness of having a confidential space where a small group of people meet regularly to practice communicating with and supporting one another towards building healthy relationships through dialogue.
Words from the US surgeon General Vivek Murthy:
Loneliness is like hunger, a signal we’re lacking something for survival’
One of the things that has happened in recent years is that our capacity for dialogue has broken down.
In some ways, we have forgotten how to talk to one another openly, honestly and respectfully.
In talking to students across America, many of them say that they don’t see a lot of dialogue taking place in-person around them.
And young people are telling us that when conversations become uncomfortable or hard, it’s much easier to just pull out your phone.
We really need spaces where young people can see healthy dialogue taking place.
We haven’t always thought that learning how to communicate and start a conversation and deal with disagreement is a skill set that needs to be taught in school.
We assume people just pick that up in the course of everyday life.
I don’t think we can make that assumption anymore.
