Support Groups in Fairfield, CT
Ongoing, weekly or bi-weekly support group, depending on needs of members. The focus is caregiver burnout-the feeling of deep exhaustion and stress at the hands of caring for another person. Compassion fatigue occurs when a caregiver embodies the physical fatigue, emotional stress/trauma of a person within their care. This support group gathers caregivers to appreciate one another's experience, offering support, tips for coping, and dissemble their feeling of isolation. The physical, mental and emotional toll caretaking involves is often overlooked and unrecognized as the patient is usually the focus. This group will make you, the caregiver, the focus.

Life has many challenges. It's how you grow from your past that defines who you are in life. You may feel alone, misunderstood, and unfulfilled with your life or personal relationships. Perhaps you're having intense negative emotions. People typically enter therapy when they are in distress, although it's usually the long-term and underlying struggles that concern them the most. Initially, we will work quickly to address your immediate pain and provide relief. As therapy progresses, our focus may shift so you develop more positive and enriching relationships with yourself and others.
