Individual Therapy for Haiti, Delivered Online.

Yes, if you need to change your recurring group therapy session time you can absolutely switch groups to one that works better for your schedule. Groups work on a set schedule so we don’t reschedule group sessions but if you can’t make a particular group session we can always add in a credit as long as it's within reason. If you need to reschedule an individual, couples, or a family therapy session, you can coordinate with your therapist and our care team to find a new time for that week - just provide advance notice. ✅ Occasional reschedules are fine, but we recommend keeping changes to a minimum for consistency. ✅ Need to change your recurring weekly time? Our team will help you adjust to a new time that fits your schedule.

If your internet disconnects during a group session, rest assured your therapist will still be there as it's a group session with other group members, so they will be there when you rejoin. For private sessions, like individual therapy, your therapist will wait 20 minutes for you to reconnect. Try refreshing your browser, using a private or different web browser, restarting your device, switching to a different device, or switching to mobile data if wifi isn’t working. If you can’t resolve the issue contact our technical support team at support@grouporttherapy.com and they will work with you on resolving.

Online therapy with Grouport works through video sessions where you meet with a licensed therapist from the comfort of your home. After you sign up, we match you with a therapist within 24-48 hours based on your needs, schedule, and preferences. Sessions are conducted via our HIPAA-compliant video platform - you simply log in at your scheduled time and connect with your therapist. You'll receive the same evidence-based treatment and professional care as in-person therapy, with the added convenience of attending from anywhere.

The group itself becomes practice for connection, communication, conflict resolution, boundaries, and vulnerability. Some people join individual therapy specifically for the social skills component. You're learning through doing and practicing in real time. The skills learned in group transfer to outside relationships and help you form healthier friendships beyond therapy. Many people think of group sessions as a practice for relationship skills they can apply elsewhere.

Bringing outside experiences into individual therapy is central to therapy. Whatever's happening in your life is material for group. However, dominating every session with outside content without engaging within the confines of group process limits benefits so it’s important to balance between bringing outside issues, listening to others in the group, and participating in group's here and now interactions. The therapist facilitates using outside examples productively, focusing on relevant skills that require time to go over, while maintaining group cohesion. Your life outside group is always relevant material and you should certainly incorporate things that happen in your life into group as that is why you are there.

Grouport's online individual therapy is already one of the most affordable therapy options out there at $25 - $35 per session ($448/month), depending on the group you’re in. That's significantly cheaper than almost any other type of therapy out there. Maybe you can use receipts to get out of network insurance reimbursement, or use HSA/FSA funds. When paying quarterly or biannually, you also do receive discounts. While we try to make our services as affordable as possible, we understand that cost is a reality that people face and everyone's financial situation is different. Sometimes taking a planned break with the intention to return when finances improve helps. The goal is supporting your treatment access with what is financially viable for you.

For some people, yes. For others, online individual therapy and individual therapy work best together. Depends totally based on what you need. Group gives you connection and perspective while individual gives you focused personal attention. Neither is inherently better, they just serve different purposes. Many people start with online individual therapy at first and add individual therapy later on, or attend group and add individual therapy when specific issues arise. A care coordinator or your therapist can help you determine whether group alone, individual alone, or both best serves your needs and ultimately you can decide that and your needs may adjust over time.

Living through political instability, protests, violence, or conflict is traumatic. Therapy provides support during crises, helps you process ongoing stress and fear, and addresses trauma. If you're in danger, therapy also helps with safety planning and deciding whether to leave.

Loneliness happens anywhere. Maybe you're new somewhere and don't have community yet. Maybe cultural differences make friendships hard. Maybe you're isolated for other reasons. Online therapy provides consistent human connection and helps you work on building community where you are.

For private sessions, we require 48-72 hours notice to cancel/reschedule without charge. If you no-show or cancel last-minute, you would be charged. For groups we can add in session credits within reason if you miss a session here and there, but the premise is that you're paying monthly regardless of whether you use all your sessions. If you miss group sessions on occasion, we understand and that’s normal, so we can provide session credits as long as it's within reason.

Grouport charges in US dollars, $103 per weekly session or $448 per month, and bills through a secure checkout that accepts most international Visa and Mastercard credit and debit cards issued by Haitian banks like Unibank, Sogebank, and BUH. Prepaid USD cards and cards linked to diaspora US accounts also work well, since many clients in Port-au-Prince and Petion-Ville prefer to avoid HTG conversion swings. Every-other-week billing is available at $224 per month if you want a lower monthly outlay while keeping licensed one-on-one video care.

After a short intake, you are matched with a licensed clinician (psychologist, LCSW, LMHC, LMFT, LPC, PsyD, or PhD) and can start right away, no 12-week waits. Because Haiti sits on Eastern Time year round, scheduling with US-based therapists is straightforward from Port-au-Prince, Cap-Haitien, or Les Cayes. You join a 45 to 50 minute HIPAA-compliant video session in English from your laptop or phone. The first session covers your history, current concerns, and goals, then you and your clinician set a weekly rhythm.
