The fact is that people in the group will have experienced a similar issue or difficulty in life. You can use the group therapy space to lean on each other.

The Difference Between Group Therapy And Individual Counseling
One of the most common questions received is, what is the difference between group therapy and individual therapy? To be honest both are extremely effective and hold an abundance of research highlighting that they work.
Group therapy unlike individual counseling gives you the opportunity to be around people who are going through a similar situation to yours. You can notice this early on in the first few sessions. Right away, this can lower your defensive walls and help you in realizing that support is around you. Sharing can be a restorative healing process in the right environment. Group therapy gives you the opportunity to grow, learn, and help others. All are essential in the growth and healing process.
