Have you ever considered Group Therapy?

We all have ways of coping with life’s challenges that are self-protective, and at the same time, get in the way of our connection to others. We learn these patterns by adapting to our families growing up, and we continue to use them to manage our lives.

Group psychotherapy is an effective, good-value way to learn about yourself and the problems you bring to realtionships via your adaptive patterns. If you join a group, you can expect to have experiences and feelings similar to how you have felt in relationships outside the group, such as with family, friends, and co-workers. Group therapy gives us a stage on which to replay relationship conflicts. When these conflicts are explored, it helps us learn how we relate to others. With greater self-awareness, we can choose new ways of relating. 

Group members must agree to hold everything that is said in the group in strict confidence. Members will come to understand other members and their issues. It is rewarding to help another member in this deep way, in a safe environment, and to be helped by them.

This is an established group with members who have experience working together. We explore feelings that people have in the group about each other and me, in a non-judgmental way. 

This group has openings for new members. 

This is a new group for any pairing of two people working toward similar goals, including married or otherwise committed couples, or business partners. Things people do to protect themselves from hurt may damage their relationship with their partner. We will explore these patterns with the focus on finding ways to deepen emotional connections.

This group has openings for new members.
