group counseling & support circles

Why Group Work Matters

In a world that often tells us to “handle it alone,” group counseling invites us to reclaim something powerful: collective healing. Our groups offer a supportive, trauma-informed space where participants can learn, grow, and reconnect—with themselves and others.


Whether you're navigating grief, managing stress, healing from trauma, or building emotional skills, group work reminds us we are not alone.

We heal in the presence of others. We transform in the presence of truth.



What Is Group Counseling?

Group counseling combines clinical support with real-time connection. Led by licensed therapists and trained facilitators, each group focuses on a specific theme or identity—creating safety through shared experience, guided reflection, and practical tools.


Participants benefit from:

  • Psychoeducation + coping strategies
  • Peer connection + feedback
  • Supportive accountability
  • Space to practice communication, boundaries, and self-awareness

What to Expect

- Confidential and affirming space

- Consistent structure and themes

- Gentle accountability and participation expectations

- Access to follow-up referrals as needed

- Sliding scale or scholarship options available


Cost & Access

We offer groups on a sliding scale to remove financial barriers. Some are grant-funded or donation-supported, and scholarships are available upon request.
