Free. Confidential. Effective.
Group counseling offers a confidential, safe space to gain awareness of self and others. The experience can reduce loneliness, normalize life events, promote change, and teach new relationship skills. Groups help us learn how to connect with our own feelings while in the presence of others.
You will learn…
- You’re not alone
- Many struggle with finding a safe place to be themselves
- Life involves giving and receiving support
- And that there is joy in finding your own “voice”
