Meet your Facilitator

Manya Krishna

I am a trauma-informed Clinical Psychologist with over six years of experience. I am registered with the Rehabilitation Council of India (RCI).

As a support group facilitator, I aim to create a safe and inclusive space where individuals feel seen and heard. Healing happens not only through self reflection but also through connection. Being witnessed and witnessing others can open new perspectives and deepen our own understanding of our own stories.

My approach combines trauma informed care with a narrative therapy lens. I am deeply sensitive to the impact of trauma and focus on creating a supportive, safe space for clients rooted in unconditional positive regard to explore their experiences.

Narrative lens allows me to help clients externalize their struggles, viewing them as separate from their identity. This shift enables them to see their challenges as something they can change, rather than something that defines them. It offers them the opportunity to reframe and re-author their stories, empowering them to reconnect with their inner strengths and values. In doing so, I help clients take ownership of their healing journey.

I work with individuals aged 14 to 40 on concerns like trauma, anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, relationship difficulties, and life transitions. My experience spans hospitals, NGOs, and private settings.

More about Support Groups & Therapy Groups:

1. What is an online therapy or support group?

Online therapy groups or support groups are structured, therapist-led sessions where participants gather virtually to discuss and work on specific mental health or personal growth topics.

These groups offer a supportive environment and help members learn coping strategies and relevant techniques from the therapist. Participants offer each other encouragement, share advice, and provide emotional support, helping one another feel less isolated.

2. What benefits can I expect from joining an online therapy group or support group?

Participants in online therapy groups often experience improved mental health, a greater sense of connection, and enhanced coping skills. Group therapy provides structured guidance from a therapist, which can lead to valuable insights and personal growth.

3. How does online group therapy compare to one-on-one therapy?

One-on-one therapy is personalized, focusing solely on your needs, which can be ideal for in-depth, private work with a therapist.

Online group therapy, however, offers a sense of community and shared experience. In addition to learning from the therapist, members get to connect with others facing similar challenges. Group settings provide diverse perspectives and reduce isolation, which participants find valuable.

4. Are online groups effective?

Yes, studies show that online groups can be as effective as in-person groups. The online format provides convenience and accessibility while offering the same structured therapeutic benefits, especially for those who prefer the comfort of their home environment.

5. Will I have to share my personal journey in the group?

Sharing is encouraged but never forced. Participants are free to share only what they feel comfortable with, and many find that opening up gradually is natural and helpful for their own growth.

6. How do online therapy groups or support groups handle difficult emotions that arise?

The therapist leading the group is trained to manage challenging emotions. They provide tools and strategies for coping, helping participants process feelings safely.

7. Can I attend online therapy groups if I’m already in individual therapy?

Yes, many people find that group therapy superbly complements individual therapy, providing additional insights and social support, thus accelerating their healing. Also, users often join group therapy for a topic that they are not focusing on in their individual therapy sessions. Often, therapists themselves recommend their clients to group therapy for a specific area of their life.

8. How do I know if a support group is right for me?

If you’re looking for shared experiences and emotional support rather than structured therapeutic guidance, a support group may be ideal. Otherwise, consider a therapy group for a more structured approach.

You can also join more than one group if you feel it will benefit you, especially if each group focuses on a different aspect of your mental health journey.
