Healing Groups
healing GROUP STUDY
Before you sign-up for a Healing Group study, your group facilitator would like to arrange a 30-minute complimentary call by phone or Zoom session, to meet with you and have an opportunity to answer any of your questions. These groups are on-going throughout the year. We will start each group within two weeks once we have 4-6 people signed up for participation.
Below are some of the groups we offer at various times in the year:

Self-Love Workbook for Women: Release Self-Doubt, Build Self-Compassion, and Embrace Who You Are
This Zoom study will use this workbook which was written to help you in a thought-provoking, reflective and encouraging way to build confidence and courage to become authentic to yourself. It’s not always easy to treat ourselves with love and self-compassion, especially when we have experienced heartbreak and betrayal. Our sense of self and value often disintegrate. So take some time to engage with this workbook with a small group of women, to be encouraged, validated and accompanied on this journey to reclaiming your worth and value, not only to yourself but to those around you.
You will need to purchase the workbook “Self-Love Workbook for Women by Megan Logan, MSW, LCSW
One-on-One Coaching & Mentoring
The One-on-One Coaching & Mentoring relationship will be conducted via Zoom or phone — offering compassionate and trauma sensitive care to help women find a safe place to process difficult emotions and lead them on a path to healing. We will have weekly check-ins to reflect on the past week’s events, processing triggers and issues with the relationship that are causing pain. We will teach you how to use grounding and calming techniques to bring relief to your trauma responses. Reflecting on what you are experiencing and processing ways to alleviate the raw emotions, and finding a path to stability. In our work together, we will help you clarify thinking, improve decision-making, and guide you on this long journey to healing and wholeness.
