Purple Lotus/ Womens Group
Purple Lotus/ Womens Group
This group is our most popular and is geared toward those individuals that would like to have a better understanding of how to respond instead of react to the narcissist that seemingly controls their lives. The individual in question can be a significant other, co-worker, parent, sibling, or supervisor as the same interventions work no matter what relationship it is aimed toward. We will be working on ways to identify and reduce emotional triggers, effective communication, detachment and setting attainable goals and boundaries. Group meets every other Tuesday at 6pm.

Purple Lotus/ Womens Group
The purple lotus is a rare color that signifies Buddhism, enlightenment and spiritual awakening. It represents self-awakening and the harmony and balance between different parts of ourselves. Women connect, understand and support each other in a way that no one else can. The trauma and events that women experience are often more common than one realizes. This group offers a safe space to explore and heal the aspects of our lives that hinder experiencing.
This group meets 6pm on Thursdays in person and on Wednesday 5p via telehealth
