Who Is the Men’s Therapy Group For?
This men’s therapy group is open to adults ages 18 and older.
It may be a good fit for men who are experiencing:
✓ Relationship or communication difficulties
✓ Anger or frustration
✓ Stress or burnout
✓ Anxiety
✓ Depression or low mood
✓ Loneliness or isolation
✓ Difficulty expressing emotions
✓ Major life changes
✓ Challenges connecting with other people
✓ A desire for greater self-awareness and personal growth
You do not need to be experiencing a crisis to benefit from group therapy. Some men join because they want a place to process current challenges, while others are looking for deeper connection, perspective, and opportunities for personal growth.
What Is a Men’s Process Group?
A men’s process group is a form of group therapy where participants meet with a therapist and other group members to explore emotions, relationships, stressors, and experiences in a supportive and confidential environment.
Unlike a class or lecture, a process group is centered around conversation and interaction between members. Participants have an opportunity to talk about what is happening in their lives, reflect on patterns in their relationships and emotions, and learn from the experiences of others.
At Still Waters Counseling, the Men’s Process Group is designed to help men build connection, increase self-awareness, and work through challenges alongside others rather than feeling like they have to handle everything alone.

What Can You Expect From a Men’s Therapy Group?
For many people, joining a therapy group for the first time can feel unfamiliar. You may wonder whether you will be expected to share personal information immediately or how conversations within the group work.
The Men’s Process Group is designed to create a collaborative and confidential environment. Members can participate at a pace that feels appropriate while gradually getting to know the group.
During sessions, members may have opportunities to:
✓ Talk through current concerns and experiences
✓ Explore relationship and communication patterns
✓ Better understand emotional reactions
✓ Receive feedback and different perspectives
✓ Practice communicating more openly
✓ Learn how other men approach similar challenges
✓ Build meaningful connections with other group members
The goal is not to tell members how they should think or feel. Instead, group therapy provides a space to explore experiences and develop greater awareness of how thoughts, emotions, relationships, and behaviors may be connected.
Why Choose Group Therapy for Men?
Men often experience stress, relationship problems, loneliness, anxiety, and other emotional challenges while feeling pressure to manage them independently.
Group therapy offers something that individual therapy cannot always provide: the opportunity to connect directly with other people who may understand aspects of what you are experiencing.
Being part of a group can help participants recognize that certain struggles are not unique to them. Listening to other members can also introduce perspectives or patterns that may be difficult to recognize on your own.
For men who prefer one-on-one support, Still Waters Counseling also offers individual therapy in Oregon.
You do not have to work through every challenge by yourself.

Is a Men’s Therapy Group the Same as Individual Therapy?
No. Individual therapy involves meeting privately with a therapist, while group therapy includes a therapist and multiple group members.
The two formats can serve different purposes.
Individual therapy provides more time to focus entirely on your personal experiences. A men’s therapy group adds another element: the ability to interact with others, receive feedback, recognize shared experiences, and explore relationship dynamics in real time.
Some people participate in group therapy on its own, while others may use group and individual therapy as complementary forms of support depending on their needs.
More About the Men’s Process Group
Do I Have to Talk About Everything in the Group?
No. Joining a process group does not mean you have to disclose everything about yourself immediately.
Building trust can take time. Participants can become more comfortable with the group gradually and decide what they are ready to discuss.
At the same time, active participation and honest reflection can help members get more from the group experience.
Is the Men’s Process Group Confidential?
The group is designed as a confidential, therapist-led space.
Because confidentiality is especially important in group therapy, expectations around privacy and participation should be discussed with members as part of joining the group.
If you have questions about confidentiality before attending, the Still Waters Counseling team can explain how the group works and what to expect.
Does Insurance Cover Men’s Group Therapy?
Insurance coverage can vary depending on your insurance company, plan, and the specific service being provided.
Still Waters Counseling works with insurance plans for many of its services and also provides information about self-pay and sliding-fee options. You can review the current or contact the office to verify options for this particular group.
