Weekly Process Group for Black-Identified Women/Femmes

This ongoing weekly process group is now forming.  

A free 20 minute consultation is required to ensure the group is a good fit. 

The group is limited to 8 members. Each group therapy session is $125.

This group is intended for individuals who are currently getting the support of a therapist and want a supportive community to process and address their family of origin issues. You may have come from a family who did not make space for your emotions and you struggle with accepting and managing your own emotions. In your family, you may have had to accept poor treatment from a family member because "that's the just the way they are" and now you accept poor treatment in your adult relationships.  The people who were charged with caregiving or parenting may have experienced their own developmental trauma and could not provide you with the care, warmth or unconditional love you needed and now you have an uncomfortable relationship with your own needs. You may be the child of a caregiver who struggled with substance and/or mental health issues and you had to parent yourself and now in your adult life you are a people pleaser or hyperindependent. If you can see yourself in any of these examples, there is a place for you in this group to get the care and support for needs that are still there and are waiting to be met. 

If you are ready to schedule a consultation, please complete the contact form and indicate your interest in this specific group to see if the group will be a good fit.

Let's Heal Together

Process group therapy offers incredible insight about how you relate to yourself and to others in the here and now in a way that individual therapy cannot recreate. The group process gives you practice, feedback and support in real time to unpack old wounds and traumas experienced in relationships with family, friends, work colleagues and romantic partners.

Within the group, you have the opportunity to:

– Sit with your feelings and needs

– Practice giving and receiving feedback

– Ask for help and receive the support of others

– Explore negative beliefs developed in family/culture

– Examine closeness and distance in your relationships

– Learn about the roles you play in relationships and how they influence your behaviors and actions

Process group therapy can serve as a safe place to play, practice and experiment with how you can better show up for yourself and in your relationships.
