A member asked:

What is the difference between the therapeutic group and the psychologist ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Numbers.: Unless it is a peer based group like AA, group therapy is run by a mental health professional, such as a psychologist. Psychologists can have different levels of training. Individual therapy can benefit certain problems and people. A group approach can be supportive and affordable.
