Supportive Therapy Groups
All therapy groups are designed to help empower, heal, and improve the lives of women. At this time the only groups that are for both men and women are the Partners of Survivors Group and the Psychotherapist Support Group. I do not have any groups for teens at this time. If you are an adolescent I am happy to work with you in individual therapy.
The groups are about helping women to feel more connected to others who have similar issues and experiences in their lives. Being able to talk with others who relate to your experiences can help you heal, let go of behaviors or beliefs that interfere in your life now and see how other people have been able to work through similar issues you have in your life now. Group therapy is able to help you heal some issues more quickly and effectively than you could in just individual therapy alone. It is empowering, helps you gain a sense of belongingness and helps you to see ways others have been able to deal with similar issues in their lives. Thus members help one another through being able to observe on another's ways of healing, growth and coping skills.
All of the groups are closed groups, which means that members entering groups have to be screened by me first, have to be willing and able to make a commitment to addend the group each time they meet for a minimum of 6 months. This is critical for groups to be effective in creating trust and emotional safety amongst group members.
