Group Therapy: Growing Together Through Communication

At QPAH, we believe that therapy is most powerful when it’s accompanied by functional practice. Therefore, we’re proud to offer group therapy sessions. They are a dynamic and supportive way for people to grow, connect and thrive together through shared experiences.

What Is Group Therapy?

Group therapy at QPAH brings together people of all abilities from across the Gold Coast and Northern NSW regions into small, carefully matched groups. This service is available for speech therapy, occupational therapy or music therapy sessions. These sessions are designed to support functional communication, social interaction and emotional development in an engaging and accessible environment.

Why We Value Group Sessions

Group therapy offers unique benefits that go beyond individual therapy sessions including:

  • Real-world communication practice: People learn to share ideas, take turns and express themselves within a safe social setting.
  • Peer connection: People build friendships, develop empathy and gain confidence by interacting with others who may share similar challenges and goals.
  • Goal-focused collaboration: We group people based on shared therapy goals, sensory profiles and common interests which allows for targeted individual support, while encouraging teamwork.
  • Cost-effective: These sessions are a more affordable option for participants or families, which makes quality therapy more accessible to people across the Gold Coast and Northern NSW regions.

Holistic Care

At QPAH, we take a holistic and family-centred approach to therapy. Consequently, group sessions are just one of the many ways which we support people to reach their full potential socially, emotionally and developmentally.

Whether working towards communication, motor skills or social confidence goals, our group programs are designed to meet participants where they are. Above all, we support people to grow in a nurturing and inclusive environment.

We continue to provide cost-effective options for participants, to ensure every person can access the support they need and deserve.
