All About Groups

 What is a therapy group?


Group Therapy is a powerful place to learn how to be in community. We often grow up learning ineffective ways of interacting where we don’t get our needs met and don’t know how to communicate what we want. Or maybe you feel anxious in groups and don’t even know what to say.

In therapy groups there is an active therapist, teaching and guiding the group to learn and practice new ways of interacting and understanding themselves.

My groups are queer and trans friendly.

What happens in group?


You’ll learn and practice:
  • How to identify what you are feeling in the moment
  • How to talk to others about your emotions
  • How to manage feelings in new and more healthy ways
  • Understand how your past relationships are currently impacting you; learn new ways of engaging with others
  • Create a support system around you that you can lean on
  • Feel comfortable in a group

What kind of groups do you run?


Monday Night Process Group - for folx who were socialized as women, this group helps to unlearn ways of being in the world that keep you stuck, small and quiet.  This group is trans/non-binary/queer friendly and focuses on understanding how society has shaped us to feel about our gender, race, sexuality, and neurodiversity. (more below)

Therapist Mom Training Groups - for therapists who want to go deeper in developing their professional ego.  This group is a place to understand your intersecting identities such as woman, mother, partner and therapist and how those identities impact you in and out of the therapy room.  (click for more)

Moms of Neurodiverse Kiddos - a space to find support, understanding, and growth (more below)

Therapist Mom Training Group

The group will be a place to process and discuss issues related to where therapist and mother intersect in an attempt to better understand your identity and impulses.  The group is a live and in person container to better understand how you perceive others in the group, get live interpersonal feedback, and learn what gets in the way of you connecting with others.  This information in turn helps in understanding how you show up for clients.  As a space for client consultation, I will guide us in exploring and discussing issues related to clients from a lens of transference and countertransference, specifically as evoked by our motherhood roles.   (​Find out more)
