Ongoing Experiential/Process group for women exploring

— Relationship with Self and Other —

Group meets every other Thursday evening / 6:00-7:30pm

Learn better relationship skills by knowing yourself. Learn tools for making clear, healthy, grounded adult choices in all relationships.

In this ongoing experiential/process group for women, we will explore our relationship with others and ourselves. You will learn better relationship skills by increasing self-awareness and compassion for yourself. You will acquire tools for making clear, healthy, grounded adult choices in all relationships. Cost is $45 per group session.

Appropriate for anyone seeking support and tools for:

• Creating a more compassionate relationship with yourself
• Seeking conscious, authentic relationships
• Changing unhealthy relationship patterns
• Ending a relationship or contemplating ending a relationship

The goal of this group is to increase your awareness of your defenses and reactions when engaging with others. These reactions and their resulting behaviors may keep you stuck in a pattern or dynamic that is not working. We need our defenses otherwise known as our "mask or survivor self" to protect us and help us to function. However, if we are unconscious of our defenses, we may think we are behaving in an authentic way when we are reacting based on a prior wounding experience or negative belief.

The format of this group allows you to delve deeply into yourself to find the clarity and truth of your authentic self and make relationship choices and choices for yourself from an authentic adult perspective. For those wanting a more intensive group experience, Jenna now offers a women’s weekend retreat: Reclaiming Your Authentic Self (put link to retreat page) open to group members and clients looking for an experiential retreat experience.
