What Are Group Members Saying About Women to Women
If you have never been part of a group counseling experience,
you may not be aware of the benefits group members encounter.
The ongoing Women To
Women Thursday evening group in New London is currently on recess with
plans to resume this fall. As a way of
evaluating their group experience to date, the group members freely responded
to the following two prompts.
Major things I am taking from this experience
are …
·
“Less self judgment”
·
“More self awareness”
·
“More self care”
·
“More self compassion”
·
“More self respect”
·
“More ability to project to others my respect
for myself”
·
“Knowing I am not alone”
·
“Feeling less stuck”
·
“Feedback from others about some of my strengths
which I don’t see in myself”
·
“Gaining a different perspective on issues
because I’ve been impacted by how others perceive things”
·
“Less judgment of others”
The best part of being involved in this group is
…
·
“I could speak freely.”
·
“There was no judgment of me or anyone else.”
·
“I was able to hear my own voice and evaluate it. I could then adjust how I handled and/or reacted
to things.”
