Support Groups
Healing doesn’t have to happen alone.
Our support groups offer a compassionate, structured space for adults (21+) who want to explore their inner world, feel less alone in their experiences, and build connection with others who truly understand.
Support groups can help you:
Feel seen, heard, and understood in a safe, non-judgmental space
Reduce isolation and shame by connecting with others who share similar experiences
Develop insight into your concerns
Practice emotional awareness, regulation, and healthy boundaries
Strengthen your sense of self while being in connection with others
Each group is facilitated with care and intention, blending gentle guidance, shared reflection, and emotional validation. While every participant’s story is unique, the group setting often brings a powerful reminder: you are not alone.
Healing Happens Together
Participant Reviews
Parental Hurt Support Group
Parental Hurt refers to the emotional pain that arises from painful, difficult, or harmful relationships with one’s parent(s) or caregiver(s), often referred to as the Mother/Father wound. Parents who are emotionally immature, as in, controlling, manipulative, absent, explosive, critical, etc., can have a lasting impact on their child(ren) leading to deep-seated wounds that affects one’s life quality from childhood well into adulthood.
For many, this type of hurt can feel incredibly isolating and dark. Which makes having a sense of community and support like the Parental Hurt Support Group essential for healing.
If this resonates with you, then know that you are in the right place to begin or continue healing and reclaiming your life. The Parental Hurt support group offers a safe space to share, heal, and learn how to navigate the impact of Parental Hurt and difficult family relationships.
This virtual group is facilitated twice a year, once in the Fall and once in the Spring. The next group is March 3rd-April 7th, 2026 every Tuesday at 6pm-7pm.

Participants can expect a supportive and confidential environment where they can share their experiences, insights, and feelings related to parental hurt.
Each week, the group will entail both fluid and guided discussions, emotional support, and exploration of the exercises and tools outlined in the book, while also having the opportunity to connect with others facing similar challenges to build a sense of community and resilience.

No, this is a support group. While group therapy and support groups do overlap, there are key differences.
Group therapy is a form of psychological treatment led by a trained professional, using clinical interventions to address specific mental health issues.
Support groups, on the other hand, focus on peers supporting one another through shared experiences, providing a safe space for connection, reducing isolation, and coping with challenges together.
Though this is the standard difference, both forms of group will have overlapping elements and can vary in structure, ranging from informal to highly organized, depending on the facilitator's approach.
In this support group, the structure will blend peer-led and facilitator-led elements, allowing for both organic and guided discussion.
