Support Group Rules
Everything shared in group will be treated with respect for the participant’s privacy. What is said in the group stays in the group.
Silence is acceptable group participation. No one needs to say anything she/he does not wish to say.
The group is supportive rather than judgmental. The group offers respect for individual choices and experiences.
Only one person talks at a time.
Turn off all mobile phones and pagers.
No one is allowed to dominate the conversation.
Begin and end meetings on time.
The group is a safe place to share feelings and to obtain and/or provide support, information, reassurance and encouragement.
The group is broadly defined. It is flexible; flowing with the participants’ needs and interests, and provides an opportunity to reduce feelings of isolation.
The group is not meant to replace individual therapy.
Every effort should be made within the group to resolve conflict arising from or during group interaction.
