FAQs about Groups
Are groups only open to California residents?

Are groups open to joining at any time?
Our Coping Skills Support Group is open to anyone at any time. This is a great group for those in need of a calm and grounding space to practice self-care. Our Religious Trauma Support Group, Somatic Skills Support Group, and Queer Identity and Trauma Group are all closed groups. That simply means that you start the group with everyone else and finish the 6 to 10 weeks of group therapy.

Most of our groups meet on a weekly basis. Your group therapist will let you know if there’s a different schedule for meeting for the specific group you are interested in.

You follow the link to the registration and payment page and you’ll be emailed the information for joining the next scheduled group.
