Question 1

Is group therapy as effective as individual therapy?

Accepted Answer

Yes. For many conditions—especially social anxiety, depression, and interpersonal issues—group therapy is often more effective than individual sessions. It provides a social laboratory where you can receive immediate feedback and support from peers, which is something a 1-on-1 session cannot replicate.

Question 2

What is the difference between a Support Group and Group Therapy?

Accepted Answer

In HCMC, many use these terms interchangeably, but there is a key difference. A peer support group is usually led by volunteers. Our Group Therapy is led by a licensed clinical professional who uses evidence-based psychological frameworks to facilitate growth, ensure safety, and provide clinical interventions.

Question 3

I am an expat - is my privacy protected in the small HCMC community?

Accepted Answer

Confidentiality is the cornerstone of our practice. Before joining, every member signs a strict confidentiality agreement. We also have a strict strangers group rule, which means members cannot have previous connections to each other. We understand the small town feel of the HCMC expat and professional communities, and we prioritize creating a safe container where what is shared in the room stays in the room.

Question 4

Do I need to be fluent in English to join?

Accepted Answer

Our groups are designed to be inclusive. While English is the primary language of facilitation, we are deeply familiar with the bilingual nature of HCMC. We encourage participants to express themselves in the way they feel most comfortable, and our therapists ensure everyone—regardless of their primary language—is fully included.

Question 5

How much does group therapy cost compared to individual sessions?

Accepted Answer

Group therapy is one of the most cost-effective ways to access professional care in Saigon. Typically, a group session costs 40 to 60 percent less than a private individual session, making it a sustainable long-term option for those seeking high-quality support without the high price tag of international clinics.
