Therapy groups in New York City

Explore therapy groups across New York City and compare what each offers: its audience, approach, meeting location, and process for joining. Online options for New York residents appear in their own section.

Where these listings are available

The local directory covers the five boroughs, rather than the wider New York metropolitan area. A listing marked “New York” does not identify a borough by itself: check its group page and confirm the address with the facilitator. New Jersey and Connecticut locations are outside this local section.

Relationships, social connection, and different group formats

Laboratory for Life invites adults to explore themselves and their relationships. The Midtown Manhattan therapy group describes work on relationships, job stress, family, isolation, and life changes, with experiential methods alongside conversation. Compare the individual listings to see which format fits what you want to discuss.

Some groups use a more specific format or serve a defined audience. Social Skills Building with Dungeons and Dragons describes game-based work for young adults ages 18–26. Neurodivergent Centered DBT focuses on neurodivergent adults and lists participation requirements, including having an existing individual therapist.

Choose a location and a group format together. Ask about the actual meeting address, consistency of attendance, current schedule, and intake conversation. A NYC listing does not mean that the group meets near every borough or is currently accepting new members.

Questions about NYC therapy groups

Can I tell which borough a group meets in?

Some group descriptions name a neighborhood or borough; others only say New York. Use the individual page and confirm the address before making travel plans. We do not assign a borough based only on the city label.

Are New Jersey groups included as local NYC options?

No. The local section is limited to NYC locations in New York State. The separately labeled online section uses eligibility for New York residents.

Do I need to be in individual therapy already?

Requirements differ. For example, the listed Neurodivergent Centered DBT group asks members to have an existing therapist. Check the requirements for the particular group you are considering.
