Grow in understanding of yourself in relation to a group of people. From the minute we are born we enter a group, our family unit, and then continue to encounter various constellations of groups as life continues, whether it be through school, extracurriculars, religious organizations, etc. Each of these spaces has a big impact on our development and sense of meaning in the world. In my group, we grow curious about patterns of relating to people, roles you play in groups, and practice new ways of being with others or understanding your and their impact on you.

We all deserve connection, but it can be hard to find or understand what keeps us from experiencing. In my group, we explore roles you play in groups of people, messages you have been taught about those roles, new roles you want to experience, and space to practice healthy connection and conflict. Relationships are key to most people's sense of meaning in life and follow us no matter where we are in life. Come find the connection you want more of in your life and tools to keep letting it grow in your life as a whole.

This led consultation group for clinicians and healing practitioners focuses on the existential factors (or “givens”) that are core to the human experience and crucial to address in the experience and healing of trauma: freedom, death, isolation/aloneness, choice, power, and meaninglessness. Trauma impacts these specific existential aspects of human experience as a core place of wounding and requires a specific focus to address them effectively in assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of Complex PTSD and associated dissociative and developmental trauma disorders.

This is a group for those who have uncovered secrets in the family tree later in life, such as through DNA tests such as Ancestry.com or 23andMe and have discovered any shocking news about their lineage. These experiences may include finding out they were donor conceived, adopted, or surprising news about affairs resulting in half siblings and other bio family they never knew about. I hope to bring a tremendous amount of support to individuals navigating these challenges.
