Circle Up!: Adding Psychotherapy Groups to your Practice

Learning Objectives:

• Embrace your identity as a group psychotherapist

• Develop 2 or 3 ideas for psychotherapy group

• Implement a clear marketing plan for your groups

As the President of the Four Corners Group Psychotherapy Society one of the most common things that I hear is "how do you get a group off of the ground!?" So many clinicians have aspirations to add group to their practice but hit a wall when it's time to start marketing it, or, they start a group only to see it fizzle and die a few months later! In most cases what is lacking is not the creativity of the therapist but a clear marketing plan and an integration of group into the business model of their practice. In this workshop, you'll not only learn how to create a marketing plan for your psychotherapy group but you'll leave feeling more confident in your growing identity as a Group Psychotherapist. This workshop is presented in conjunction with the Four Corners Group Psychotherapy Society.
