I think about this a lot, really. I feel like our basic model of therapy is entirely wrong, and treating it as a thing that individuals can do to fix themselves both ignores most of its benefits and limits the ability of the individual to actually change.https://twitter.com/GeniesLoki/status/1300736048432140291 …
I think it's harder to find a therapist that matches everyone in the group, certainly, but it also matters less because it's the group fit that's important. The group also helps with willingness to work on yourselves because everyone is mutually supporting and helping commit.

I meant that people in the group would need some mutual fit for this to work; do you mean something else with "group fit"? I'll have to take your word on the second part, my situation doesn't allow trying it.

In a group setting I feel like I'd have to fit with *everyone* to feel safe and comfortable doing therapeutic work. That could be my insecurity at work though.

on whether therapy helps at the individual level at all - I think it's much more useful to have a whole bunch of therapy skills in the water in a community than therapy is for individuals themselves.
