How to Join Our Washington, DC Social Anxiety Group Therapy
Prospective group members will first have a short, no-cost consultation call by phone or video with Dr. Noguchi.
During this call, we will
- discuss what interests you about group therapy for social anxiety
- discuss what expectations and goals you have
- ask some questions to get to know you and your social anxiety concerns better
- answer questions you may have
- provide more information about the BSC group
Toward the end of the consultation call, we will determine if the BSC group might be an appropriate fit. If we agree that group therapy is a fit, we will schedule a 45-minute screening session ($100). This session is common practice to address a range of matters in-depth (e.g., your social anxiety concerns, group therapy expectations, any remaining questions you have). We will also review the group therapy guidelines and consent form during this meeting.
Don’t worry if this sounds like a lot, we will guide you through the process.
The first step is to reach out.
