I'm also thinking of my insurance issues too. I'd much rather be able to see my doctors and therapist and mentor then going to groups.
Peer Support....... not so much. The leader was being clueless so this is not a good start. I would also encourage you to talk to the supervisor and give them feedback. You may like to suggest that there are two group facilitators.

I have found that not all groups are a good match for me and others are great. Please don't give up just yet. If this group doesn't work out maybe the supervisor may be able to suggest a better match for you and your needs.
Thanks for this!
