Some of the Groups We Offer Include:

Chronic Pain & Mental Health	Thriving with Anxiety & Depression
Join us for a supportive hour exploring how to understand chronic pain's impact on our mental health and manage pain in healthy ways.	Thriving with Anxiety & Depression offers individuals a safe space to share experiences with anxiety and depression while receiving support from peers. We focus on building community through positive social relating, education and conversation.
Healing Dependency	Trauma, Healing, & Hope
A supportive group focused on helping members identify patterns of dependence and build the skills needed for healthy independence. Through guided discussion and practical tools, participants learn to strengthen self-reliance, confidence, and personal choice in their lives.	This group offers a safe, compassionate space to explore the impact of trauma and its effects on our lives. Through shared experiences and mutual support, participants are encouraged to better understand trauma, gently process emotions, and build healthy coping tools at their own pace. This group emphasizes connection and empowerment while fostering hope, healing, and personal growth in a supportive community where every story is respected. This group will be co-facilitated by a Cal Poly MFT Intern!
