Being able to talk with others about addiction isn’t always easy. Because of the stigma attached to drug use and addiction, you may fear that people will judge you for your situation rather than offer help. Fortunately, you are not alone, and group therapy can offer a positive outlet to those working on recovery from drug or alcohol abuse.

Benefits of Virtual Group Therapy
Connecting with others going through similar experiences can be extremely beneficial for those in addiction recovery. However, in-person group therapy may not suit everyone’s needs, while virtual group therapy offers an alternative way of connecting.
Those who participate in virtual group therapy can enjoy the following benefits:
- Safety: For those whose addiction stems from traumatic experiences, it may feel safer to engage with others from your own home in a setting where you can leave easily if needed.
- Fewer distractions: In face-to-face group therapy, the environment may feel distracting or over-stimulating for some. With virtual group therapy, you can control your environment and eliminate distractions from your space.
- Convenience: With virtual group therapy, you don’t have to leave the house or drive anywhere to join peers and caring professionals in transformative and important conversations about addiction.
- More inclusive and targeted therapy: Connecting virtually allows for more widespread access, including individuals who may not otherwise be able to attend. This means that counselors can put together more closely aligned groups in their common experiences and recovery targets.
- Deeper healing and recovery: People who connect virtually can feel more comfortable being themselves because they are at home. Letting your guard down is easier when you don’t have to worry about your surroundings or have new people physically around you.
