Why group therapy?
Groups offer a space to share your challenges with people who can identify you. By coming together and talking about what you are facing, you have the opportunity to learn from one another as much as the clinician leading the group.
Get Started Today
Step 1: Call the office at 757-253-0111 and let us know you are interested in group therapy
Step 2: Complete a pre-screen with our administrative staff. Please note that some of the questions may be challenging to answer, but that is so we best understand how to support you.
Some examples of these questions are: Is there a history of any type of abuse, either physical, verbal, or sexual? If so, when did the abuse take place? Are you currently homeless or at risk of homelessness? Are you suicidal, have suicidal ideations/suicidal thoughts, or homicidal? Are you actively self harming or do you have a history of self harming? If so, when was the last time?
Step 3: Create your Valant (online client portal), complete your paperwork, and schedule an initial individual appointment with Ashinna. Your best interest is our top priority. This initial session is to ensure that you will not be retraumatized by a group setting. We are here to support you with individual therapy if that is the best environment for you.
Step 4: Attend the group sessions to create bonds and empower one another knowing that you are not alone.
Group therapy is offered in person at our Williamsburg office. Coming soon to other locations.
