What you’ll get
-
Neurodiversity Affirming Group Therapy
12 90 minute Group Sessions to process grief, anger and growth with others who “get it”. No forced forgiveness. No toxic positivity. The first six weeks will focus on dedicated prompts and the next six weeks group members will decide discussion topics. Best of both worlds. Group therapy is just as effective and often more efficient than 1:1 therapy. Healing doesn’t happen in a vacuum.You need to regain community that is based in mutual support and shared values of inclusivity and self determination.

You can feel confident in this safe, evidenced based process to help you reclaim safety and rewrite your spiritual story.

FAQ
-
This program is designed to be trauma informed and therefore reduce the likelihood of dissociation in 1:1 or Group sessions. That being said, I move at your pace and you’re always allowed to take a break or stop. You’ll also learn valuable bilateral stimulation tools for self regulation and will always be offered grounding opportunities in every session.
-
I recommend not planning to miss more than one group or 1:1 session. 1:1 sessions can likely be made up but group sessions build on each other and cannot be recorded due HIPAA compliance (aka confidentiality.) That being said if you need to change your time slot for 1:1 sessions for any reason I’m happy to accommodate as I’m able.
-
I encourage some kind of sharing and communication every session however we utilize telehealth for it’s neurodiversity affirming potential meaning you’re always welcome to take a break from having your camera on and to communicate in the chat whenever you don’t want to or can’t physically speak. This goes for 1:1 sessions too.
