About the group:
Our LGBTQIA+ affirming therapy group is a sanctuary designed to foster post-traumatic growth, understanding, and empowerment for queer individuals ages 18 and above. Through group discussions, therapeutic exercises, and expressive arts practices, we aim to create a nurturing environment where you can heal, grow, and thrive.
This group celebrates diversity and honors each person’s authentic self-expression. Our approach is intersectional and trauma-informed, recognizing the diverse backgrounds, identities, and unique lived experiences within the LGBTQIA+ community.
Join us as we journey together toward greater self-acceptance, trauma recovery, and holistic well-being. You are not alone—in this affirming therapy group, your story matters, and your voice is heard.
