Absolutely! At ShareWell, we believe in providing you with as much support as you need on your mental health journey. While therapy and peer support are different, they can complement each other to enhance your overall well-being.
Therapy typically involves working with a trained professional, such as a therapist or counselor, who offers expert guidance and clinical interventions to address specific mental health challenges. Unlike therapy, peer support is not led by trained professionals but by hosts who facilitate the groups and ensure everyone's voices are heard. Peer support offers a unique space where individuals with shared lived experiences can connect, empathize, and offer support to one another. It provides a safe environment where people can express themselves openly, feel understood, and build a sense of community.
Both therapy and peer support contribute valuable elements to your well-being, providing you with different forms of support and growth opportunities. So, yes, feel free to engage in both therapy and ShareWell's peer support groups. Join a peer support group here.
