Building Boundaries and Welcoming Emotions
This group is for individuals who would like to improve at having boundaries in their personal and professional lives and relationships as well as allowing themselves to more consistently welcome their feelings, emotions, and insights in order to be their more authentic self. This group involves psychoeducation (teaching) as well as sharing, processing, and support, and draws on information pertaining to family dynamics, attachment, complex trauma/C-PTSD, communication skills, and internal family systems.
This group meets every other week for 90 minutes, and each session is $50. (A superbill can be provided to assist you with seeking out of network reimbursement for group therapy.) It is a closed group of 4 to 9 participants, meaning that after it is underway, membership is set, so that members can develop some trust and solidarity with one another, and deepen into a safe enough emotional container. There is a curriculum for this group that works through various types of boundaries and how to identify, establish, communicate, and enforce them, and various emotions and how to understand their positive/protective function and work with them rather than suppress them.
The group curriculum runs for about 8 months. While this is a considerable amount of time, I have found that having meetings every other week over this time period allows for plenty of time to take in and digest the content, experiment and apply things in your own mind and also in your relationships between meetings, and evaluate any changes that are occurring, while balancing both your growth in personal authenticity and also your evolving way of showing up in relationships.
The next group is likely to begin at some point this summer, online, although it is possible I will be able to offer it in person. There is plenty of space remaining for the next group! To get onto the interest list, please contact me via phone or email and simply let me know you’d like to be added to the interest list for the group. Also, of course, feel free to contact me with any questions!
