Healing begins when you allow yourself to stop suffering. As Helen Keller stated, "Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of overcoming it". Your journey begins when you identify the emotions causing you to feel your life is out of control. The process of healing starts by recognizing and removing layers of false beliefs and negative thoughts. Understanding where those beliefs and thoughts come from will allow you to gain strength and courage to overcome the challenges and obstacles you face throughout your life. It is then you will experience inner peace with a healing mind.

I feel and experience the best approach to healing is to heal mind and body as ONE. I am a somatic trained Trauma therapist. Trauma causes an overcharged nervous system, regulated by the mind and directed by the brain. When we work you will discharge traumatic experiences then the body can self-regulate to a reorganized state of aliveness. The brain rewires and the mind can let go of the attachment to pain and trauma. Focusing on goals and applying scientific approaches to mind/body trauma releases CORE traumatic injuries.

A support group will be therapeutic, but is not therapy. The primary value of this support group is to provide a place where caregivers can give voice to stressful experiences, strong feelings and personal frustrations in the company of others who, ideally give a verbal or head nod agreement with the issue rather than criticism or value-laden responses that only make these difficult feelings intensify. In short, a caregiver support group should provide authentic, empathic understanding. Although, I am a Licensed Clinical Therapist, my role is to facilitator the group, not be a therapist. My role is to facilitate the discussions in the group.

Having a sense of where you are going and what you want to do with your life is key in overcoming dependence on unhealthy relationships and/or behaviors. Life is a trip. Without a plan and sense of direction, life can become stagnant. It doesn't have to be that way. The changes don't have to be drastic. A different perspective sometimes is needed. Change is not easy, but with encouragement and support, you and I will identify the changes you want to make and start the journey to a better you. My goal is to support you on that journey to help you become the person, partner, etc. you want to be. Now is the time.
The pandemic has been one of the more major and recent stress-related problems we share--but often we don't talk about how we feel in healing ways to take the edge off our worries. Family losses, extra financial problems, getting tested, booster shots, kids' missing school. It has been chaos for most of us. Let us begin to get our calm breath back in a safe space with others who have suffered or are still suffering. Please feel free to contact me if this is a good idea for you andn yours.

When you feel stuck, out of sorts, things just aren't going well, some coaching or therapy might help you. You may feel anxious, sad, angry, annoyed-- perhaps at the bottom of your "stuckness". I invite you to work with me on these issues, knowing that either long-standing or recent problems are fixable--solutions are just around the corner. A special tool I share is EFT - Emotional Freedom Technique. This quickly and easily releases specific negative feelings. Anxiety, fears, phobias, guilt, grief, limiting beliefs are just some of the upsets you can release. It even helps soothe panic attacks quickly. Let's have a chat!

Many studies have concluded that friendships are vital to a person’s well-being, and this is especially true for older women. Creating a book Club can create female friendships that can be the key to happiness in older women. A study by the Industrial Psychiatry Journal published in Psychology Today showed a significant relationship between depression and loneliness in older people. This is a small group of women that meet to read and discuss books based on a topic or an agreed-upon reading.

Healing is a relational process in which therapist and client begin a journey of discovering the self through the therapist's creation of a place the client feels felt, seen, safe, understood, soothed, and secure. A womb is created in the room of therapy. This is a recreation of the mother-infant bonding and positive attachment that was lacking or inadequate. In this client-therapist relationship, healing is achieved through playfulness, acceptance, curiosity and empathy.

FAQs - About Group Therapy and Support Groups
How can I find a support group in Jensen Beach?
Search for nearby support groups by inputting your city, zip code, or the name of the group into the search bar. From there, you can filter to find a group that suits your needs, whether you are looking for support for a teenager, a group that focuses on a specific issue, such as depression, or a particular program type, such as one geared toward developing social skills. To navigate between locations within the same country, enter a new city or zip code into the search bar.
How does group therapy work?
Therapy groups are led by one or more therapists and serve to help people process their experiences and learn from others who understand their challenges firsthand. They can be based on a specific issue, such as addiction, grief, physical illnesses, parenting, and caregiving. They can involve a specific type of program or therapy, such as a social skills group or CBT group. They can also be specific to a particular population or community, such as teens or LGBTQ.
Support groups, like Alcoholics Anonymous, also focus on a specific issue, but are typically led by members with lived experiences and are less structured than therapy groups. Most therapy groups will meet for a fixed length of time with a consistent group of members, while many support groups meet for an indefinite period of time with members coming and going.

What are the benefits of group therapy?
Support groups help connect people with shared challenges or physical and mental health conditions. In a group setting, participants can receive support and feedback from peers and can acquire new skills, strategies and perspectives by listening to one another. Discussing your experience with someone who also has a cancer diagnosis, or whose son also struggles with addiction, for example, can help you feel less alone, reduce distress, find empathy and connection, and learn practical or medical information that has helped others. Group therapy can also be a more affordable option than individual therapy and just as effective.
Is group therapy as effective as individual therapy?
Support groups can be deeply valuable for both emotional support and/or treatment outcomes. It’s difficult to make a blanket statement on efficacy due to the many different types of support groups and conditions treated, but group therapy has been found to be just as effective as individual therapy in establishing long-term abstinence for conditions such as substance abuse, addiction and alcohol abuse.
How much does group therapy cost?
Group counseling is typically less expensive than individual counseling, with each session costing on average between $60 to $75. Meanwhile, individual therapy sessions can run anywhere from $100 to $200 and up, even after insurance. It is possible to find low-cost group therapy options and many therapists offer group sessions free of charge.
Does insurance cover group therapy?
As with individual therapy, many insurance companies do offer coverage for group therapy sessions. However, the coverage varies based on your insurance plan details and whether you choose an in-network or out-of-network mental healthcare provider. Individuals are encouraged to check with their insurance providers to verify coverage.
How long does group therapy last?
The length of a support group session is often one hour but can fall anywhere between 45 minutes and two hours. The amount of time that people remain in a support group varies based on their specific needs and goals and the type of therapy. Some individuals may seek a shorter-term group, such as a bereavement group, that may last between six and 20 weeks. Some may seek a longer-term group that lasts for a year or indefinitely.
What are the limitations of support groups?
Support groups have many benefits, but there are a few limitations as well. Support groups do not constitute formal therapeutic or medical treatment, and are not run by licensed mental health professionals, so some people may opt for group therapy or individual therapy instead. Additionally, support groups can depend on the other participants, so a disruptive individual has the potential to mar the group dynamic, and the anecdotal information shared may sometimes be unhelpful or inaccurate. Because it is a group setting, confidentiality can be more difficult to guard and participants receive less personalized attention than they would in an individual therapy session.
