Interpersonal Group Therapy at The Group Psychology Practice, Sydney

Discover the Power of Group Therapy

Group therapy offers a unique relational space where up to ten individuals gather regularly to explore connection, presence, and relational process. Inspired by Irvin D. Yalom’s process model and informed by contemporary ecological and depth perspectives, these groups become living ecosystems—where relational patterns and deeper entanglements emerge, unfold, and can be worked with in real time.

Key Elements

Relational & Ecological Exploration:
‍Participants trace how past and present relationships, cultural narratives, and ecological contexts shape their experience, learning to recognise and engage with these patterns within the group’s evolving, living culture.
Mutual Support:
‍The group provides a relational space where members give and receive honest feedback, fostering empathy, courage, and authentic connection.
Presence and Process:
Sessions are process-oriented and unstructured, focused on deep attunement to what unfolds moment to moment. The therapist holds this emergent space as a host, encouraging the group to embrace complexity, uncertainty, and even the “monstrous” or hidden aspects that arise.
Growth and Transformation:
‍Over time, participants develop relational flexibility, emotional courage, and clarity that extend beyond the therapy room supporting not only individual insight but a more attuned participation in the larger ecological and relational world.

Withdrawal and Re-Entry: Membership in the group continues until a participant formally or decisively withdraws. Withdrawal is an autonomous decision that ideally occurs with intentional reflection and, where possible, is grounded in the group process itself. This means participants are encouraged to consider their decision thoughtfully and, if appropriate, discuss it within the group or with the therapist to honour the relational dynamics at play.
‍
Please note that once withdrawn, returning to the same group may not be possible due to group dynamics and availability.
