therapy Group lineup
Therapy groups are a powerful tool for personal growth and transformation. In a safe and supportive space, you can connect with others who understand what you're going through and learn from each other's experiences.
APP offers a variety of groups to meet your specific needs. Our groups are led by experienced and compassionate therapists who are committed to creating a safe and inclusive environment. We believe that everyone has the potential to heal and grow.
