Are you feeling disconnected from those around you?  
Are you craving more feedback about how others experience you? 
Would you like a supportive community where you can take risks in relating in new ways?
​
Groups are a powerful place to do personal growth work as well as build skills and confidence in navigating relationships. Reaching out for a free initial phone consultation is the first step in seeing if group is right for you.

Who can benefit from groups? 

Some of the specific issues that bring people to group are:

• Difficulty finding or sustaining relationships
• Perfectionism, self-criticism, shame
• Loneliness or isolation
• Sense of disconnection from one's inner emotional world 
• Anxiety or Depression​
• Difficulty managing or accessing anger

Why Group? 
​
As a group member you will have a chance to find healing in a diverse, safe-enough, and supportive community. Group therapy can be a uniquely powerful vehicle for working through interpersonal issues and deepening your sense of connectedness. Groups function as a microcosm of the real world, and give us an opportunity to try out authentic interaction with a wide range of people and receive valuable feedback in a supportive environment. ​Hearing from others who have dealt with similar issues can help us understand our own predicaments; and having an opportunity to tell our own stories can empower us to find our voice. Groups can be a transformative addition to individual therapy or an effective stand-alone treatment. 

What happens in Group Therapy? 

During a Group Therapy session, members work to express their thoughts and feelings as freely and honestly as possible. This allows members the chance to understand others at a deeper level as well as learn more about themselves by studying how they interact in the group. ​
