Join our online metacognitive group program and learn how to overcome the cycle of worry and rumination.
With the support of an evidence-based course program facilitated by generally and provisionally registered Psychologists, you will learn skills and strategies to support taking back control of your thoughts through proven metacognitive techniques.
Often our lives can be full of complexities, and we can get lost trying to problem-solve. Sometimes, we get stuck trying to find solutions, paying excessive attention to worries and feeling out of control.
Although we can’t control the challenges ahead of ourselves, we can always improve how we face them: equipped with an understanding of what worry and rumination looks like, we can shift our attention away from the rabbit hole of possible solutions into solution based actions, and open the possibility to improving our wellbeing and quality of life.
With the support of a structured program and two facilitators in a peer group setting, you will:
The advantages of a group therapy environment include receiving shared perspectives from others with similar experiences, learning from the group’s insights, and benefiting from peer support and encouragement.
Group therapy also provides an opportunity for you to receive evidence based supports at a lower cost than individual therapy.
Group therapy may be an excellent option for you if you have already exhausted your yearly mental health care plan or if you would like a top up in-between therapeutic services.
