Group therapy can be a great way to learn therapeutic skills, find solidarity with others working through similar issues, and explore and experiment with the ways we relate to others in real time within a safe container. Find information about current and upcoming therapy groups below.
This ten-week group focuses on untangling codependent dynamics by better understanding the indirect ways we attempt to get our needs met, and learning to advocate for those needs more effectively. This group may be helpful for those who identify as "people-pleasing," have difficulty asserting themselves, struggle with setting boundaries, want to take up more space, or want to see shifts within frustrating interpersonal dynamics in their lives. People who may benefit from this group recognize that there are some unhealthy dynamics happening under the surface of their interpersonal relationships, and feel ready to look at their own part in those dynamics, empowering themselves to shift them.
