I've just joined an art therapy group, after having individual sessions with the very same therapist for about 18 months. And those individual sessions sometimes were pretty intense.

Personally, I'm struggeling with the changes that this brings about. This is not to discourage you. Just be prepared that some weird feelings might appear. And try to find the courage to talk about it in group.

For me this group setting seems to create some sort of pressure cooker atmosphere, it intensifies everything. Which means for me because of the intensity that I have to act and not stay in my normal mode of reaction. Overall I'm learning a lot in this setting, just a few weeks have brought about some really significant changes.

Hoping you'll find your group helpful!
