Groups & Workshops
Group therapy and workshops at Finding Normal can be an alternative or in addition to individual therapy. Groups are a way to diminish shame and isolation by being around others who are moving through similar experiences.
Group Therapy
Trauma often reinforces the idea that we are alone: no one understands, no one has felt this way, no one cares. Being with others who are also focused on moving through trauma and isolation can be a way to challenge the idea that you must recover alone. Groups are also a more affordable alternative to individual therapy and can help ease you in to more individual work, if that is your goal.
Sunday Circle Meet Up Group
Need more community in your life? Join our monthly meet up group where we will use art, journaling, activities, movement, and good old-fashioned talking about feelings to explore different elements of ourselves and life.
Sunday, August 9 from 1-3 pm
Balance
Each of us knows what it’s like to have competing needs, emotions, or values. For folks recovering from trauma or living with ADHD & autism, finding a way to manage everything can be especially tricky. This will be a time to explore the balance or imbalance in your life, and come up with ideas on how to live in a way that is more manageable for you.
Cost: $25 per session
RSVP to Laura at laura@findingnormalstl.com
Group size is limited and meets in-person at Finding Normal. You do not need to be a current client of Finding Normal to participate.
