Types of Group Therapy We Offer

InnerCalm offers multiple evidence-based group formats, each designed to address a specific aspect of recovery and long-term wellness.

🧩

CBT Skill-Building Groups

Safe, trauma-sensitive group process for patients with trauma histories that contribute to substance use. Not exposure-based — focused on safety and stabilization.

👪

Family Education Groups

Monthly sessions for family members to understand addiction, learn supportive communication, and establish healthy boundaries without enabling.

🌱

Early Recovery Groups

Targeted support for patients in the first 90 days of recovery — the highest-risk period for relapse. Focus on practical life skills and building sober support networks.

The Power of Shared Recovery

Research shows that group therapy can be as effective as individual therapy for addiction, and often more effective for building the social support networks that sustain long-term recovery. At InnerCalm, groups are kept small (8–12 people) to ensure everyone gets meaningful participation time.

  • Small groups of 8–12 people for meaningful connection
  • Licensed therapists and certified addiction counselors
  • Morning (9am) and evening (6pm) groups available
  • Integrated with individual therapy and MAT programs
  • Separate groups for different stages of recovery
  • Medicaid, Medicare, and private insurance accepted

What to Expect in Your First Group

Group therapy can feel intimidating, but our facilitators create a welcoming, non-judgmental environment. In your first session, you'll be introduced to the group guidelines (confidentiality, respect, no cross-talk), share as much or as little as you're comfortable with, and begin to connect with peers who understand your experience.


Group sizes: 8–12 participants. Duration: 3 hours per session. Frequency: 3–5 sessions per week in IOP.

Group Therapy FAQs

Will I have to share personal details in group therapy?
Sharing is always voluntary. You can participate at whatever level feels comfortable. Over time, most patients find that sharing becomes easier and more rewarding as they build trust with the group. All group members sign confidentiality agreements.
Are groups mixed or separated by substance?
Our groups are generally mixed, as recovery skills apply across all substance use disorders. However, we have specialty groups for specific populations including opioid recovery, alcohol recovery, and dual diagnosis patients.
Does insurance cover group therapy?
Yes — group therapy as part of an IOP or standard outpatient program is covered by Medicaid, Medicare, and most private insurance plans. Our admissions team verifies your specific benefits before you begin.
Can I do group therapy without being in the IOP?
Group therapy is offered as part of our IOP program and also as standalone outpatient services. Our clinical team will recommend the appropriate level of care based on your assessment.
