PDA Family Processing Group
This group offers a facilitated emotional processing space for adult family members of individuals with PDA—focusing not just on PDA traits or strategies, but on the inner experience of loving, supporting, and living alongside a PDA-identified loved one. It is not a skills group. Instead, it: Holds space for grief, rage, guilt, fatigue, confusion, and love Supports nervous system regulation in relationally intense dynamics Encourages repair and re-authoring of family narratives Offers resonance and validation from peers in similar roles Helps participants reconnect with their own needs, identities, and values

DBT for Neurodiverse Minds
This 12-week group offers a neurodivergent-affirming approach to Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) for Autistic, ADHD, AuDHD, PDA, and otherwise neurodiverse adults. We explore DBT skills—mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness—through a lens that honors sensory, cognitive, and emotional differences. Led by Pamela L. Hicks, LMFT, a somatic and trauma-informed therapist, sessions blend education, somatic practices, and community discussion. You’ll gain tools for emotional regulation, communication, and self-compassion in a supportive space where your way of thinking and feeling is understood.
