Groups offer a structured and safe experience where you learn from others, receive real-time feedback, and gain support and community. It is not uncommon for group members to be surprised and comforted as others speak out loud the same thoughts and feelings they have been having themselves. Members are never forced to share, but most find it very relieving and reassuring to hear how many others can relate to the things they say to the group.

Group therapy sessions are held in the evenings to easily fit your schedule and led by licensed professional therapist. Our mental health group sessions are detailed below with descriptions:

• Grief & Trauma

• Work Life Balance

• Stress & Anxiety

• Support Group

Grief and Trauma

Everyone experiences and expresses grief and trauma in their own way.  Grief is a reaction to the loss of something or someone special.  Grief and trauma therapy can help you learn how to cope with your emotions, work through your struggles, and start to find yourself again.  Grief and trauma therapy can help you understand the different stages of grief and learn to identify your triggers and emotions.  Counseling can also assist you in recognizing that your emotions are natural and acceptable reactions to what you have gone through.  It can also help guide why you are feeling certain emotions and behaviors and help you work through them in a safe and healthy way.  If you are considering help with grief and trauma there are a few things you should keep in mind.  Its okay not to be okay, you don’t have to hide your emotions or pretend that they do not exist.  Its okay to ask for help.  Its normal to feel overwhelmed, hopeless, scared, numb after experiencing loss or trauma.  Asking for help is a sign of strength and not weakness.  It takes strength and courage to face your pain and struggles head one.  You deserve to be able to release what you are holding on to.  You don’t have to suffer in silence.  You are not your trauma.  You are human and you matter.  In this group community you will have the opportunity to be surrounded by individuals experiencing similar experiences. You will be able to vent and express yourself in a safe environment without judgement. If you are ready to take the first step, we are here to help.

Support Group

In this journey of life, we are challenged mentally, physically, spiritually and emotionally.  Sometimes the fire within us is dimed by daily stress, fear, burnout, and doubt.  We can feel that we are moving through life unmotivated.  It's never too late to start over and rediscover who you are.  Life changes us as we shift through different experiences.  If you don't know what support you need this is for you. In this space you have the opportunity to share your experiences and feelings, and be able to gain new insight to coping strategies.  We listen, support and help guide you in a different direction.  It's okay to ask for help.  It's okay to not know what help you need.  We are here for you.
