A men’s group is a very powerful tool to reduce shame in a man’s life and to help a man come out of hiding. It is a deeply powerful experience to share vulnerability with other men in a safe setting and to realize that you are not alone. When men learn how to become intimate with other men (in a non-sexual way) it generally creates positive impacts in all areas of their life. The group has a cost of $640 which is $80 for every weekly 2-hour session. It is covered by insurance if your insurance covers Registered Psychotherapist (RP).
