Just Too Much

Group therapy is a form of psychotherapy where a group of people come together under the guidance of a trained therapist to practice community healing and caretaking. For us at Interfaith Bridge, we describe group therapy as a safer space for teens and young adults to practice therapeutic skills and social bravery alongside a community of people their age.

Humans, especially young people, need other people. When we have other people who understand what we’re going through and why, we are happier, healthier, and ultimately, more capable. This is because positive, in-depth community relationships, help us:

• Encourage a more hopeful perspective through story sharing, validation, and appreciation

• Recognize that we are not alone in our lived experience and that there are other people who have been through or are experiencing a similar situation

• Learn new ways to express and talk about feelings, thoughts, and sensations

• Feel a sense of belonging to a community

• Build self-esteem through the experience of helping support others, which in turn, develop adaptive coping skills

• Understand how to accept and model accountability for one’s own behavior

• Have psycho-education around emotional challenges and learning factual information

Through group therapy here at Interfaith Bridge Counseling, young adults are given the unique opportunity to explore and discover exactly who they are, who they want to be, and what it’s like to have a community that supports them through it all.

This young adult therapy group is for young adults typically between the ages of 18-24 years old, who are navigating the transition into adulthood. All group members must come in for an initial group therapy intake to assess group fit.

Typically, the participating young adult must reside in the state of Colorado. If the participating young adult resides in another state, it is required by law that we check the interstate telehealth laws for attending therapy and group therapy across state lines.

Just Too Much is an interactive, online therapy group in Colorado that meets every week on Thursday from 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm. Because this young adult group meets virtually, we use a HIPAA-secure video platform for each meeting.

Just Too Much is an on-going young adult therapy group and your start date is determined once you complete a group intake with one of our Group Facilitators.

Our Just Too Much therapy group costs $40 per session, which can be paid per session or via a monthly charge. There is a one-time cost of $65 for an initial group intake to assess fit that is required for all new participants.

Yes. Each participant is required to make an eight-session commitment, which is a total of eight weeks, both physically and financially.

This eight session commitment is required as group therapy is a very intimate and vulnerable experience that uplifts and practices community caretaking. Each individual member offers their time and emotional labor willingly in our group therapy sessions, cultivating healthy and long-term relationships with one another. This eight session commitment honors the time, effort, and openness that our group therapy communities value and readily give.

It is important to note that our office is entirely virtual - we no longer have a physical location at this time. Because our office is virtual, you are able to join on a phone, tablet, or computer using the Google Meets app or dialing in once you have been given access to our Google Meets link. Through our virtual office, we are also able to assist you in turning on closed captioning and using the chat feature as additional, accessible ways to engage our virtual office.

No, this group is not a part of a specific religion or belief system.

We use the word interfaith because to us, it means the exploration and bridging of various beliefs, values, traditions, cultures, and/or faiths. This is something that we believe all people can relate on, regardless of how they do or do not identify. When we work with people as a whole for who they are and who they aspire to be, this becomes a necessary part of the therapeutic process.
