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.
 
As a way of evaluating their group experience, 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.”
