Between Sessions is an 8-week online peer group for adults experiencing stress, anxiety, burnout, or emotional overwhelm.

Process This! is a group to explore how to be ourselves in the presence of others, and with supportive feedback, start to notice where we get stuck, and what gets in our way. Group therapy provides a unique opportunity to experiment with ways of connecting, creating a safe place to see how our experience can impact others in unexpected ways. We use a Gestalt approach that emphasizes supportively exploring physical sensations long enough to understand the deep emotions that might be too hard to feel on your own.
