Groups
Rebuild Divorce Groups for Adults and Children
Rebuild is a 5-week course for parents and children going through separation or divorce. This group is co-taught, and we begin as a group to go over a weekly theme, then split into two groups to further engage; one group for adults, and one for children (recommended ages 4-17). The 5 themes presented are: RENOUNCE, RESTORE, RENEW, RESET, REFRESH. We use the Bible along with therapeutic techniques as your family is adjusting to a new normal. We will teach practical tools for calming anxieties, lifting depression, and introducing positive communication skills. Contact for future spring group.

Growing Together Family Workshops
Family workshops offer a fun day for your entire family to GROW TOGETHER through Movement, Music, Relaxation & Art Activities. Throughout our lives, most of us have experienced being pruned (through discipline), transplanted (planned or unplanned moves in life) or being grafted into another family unit (through marriage or divorce)... but we are still able to be fruitful. Learn skills for navigating your family journey of relationships and faith. Traditional, blended, single parent-led, grandparent-led, adopted and foster families are all welcome! Contact to inquire of future spring workshop days or to host a workshop at your school or church.

Family Coaching Sessions
Family Coaching Sessions are for families looking for a group approach to navigating the wholeness of the entire family. This supportive solution focused coaching focuses on FAMILY systems or family dysfunction, and to provide HELPFUL SOLUTIONS. This is an alternative to traditional therapy which focuses on one individual, to care for the group as a whole. Coaching is offered for a group fee for 4 sessions, with the option to add-on additional meetings. We work together to help identify social and emotional deficits along with executive function skill building to create new systems for the family to function better.
