Groups
Men's Group
Ongoing virtual (Zoom) interpersonal process group for male-identified adults interested in better understanding themselves, improving self-esteem, and strengthening relationships with others. Individuals learn about their social and relational difficulties by exploring here-and-now interactions with others experiencing similar struggles. A place to listen, be heard, and understood. As leader, I create a safe space grounded in playful curiosity where members can openly express themselves, give and receive feedback, learn new behaviors, and practice new ways of communicating. It is recommended that members have prior or current experience in individual therapy.
