You’ve been told you’re “too much.”
In the right room, this is exactly what connects you!
Get into a group where you EXPERIENCE belonging—not just talk about it.
Group Therapy in Phoenix
Gathering online throughout Arizona
A dedicated space for thoughtful, deeply-feeling people navigating emotionally demanding experiences and new identities.
My take: Your emotions aren’t problems—they are the advisors trying to guide you.
If you’ve been called “too much,” you may have gotten the message that your emotions are problems to solve, manage, or suppress.
In therapy, we begin to listen to emotions differently—as information. When we do, they can clarify needs, strengthen boundaries, and support more connected relationships.
I’m Traci Andes, board-certified therapist and registered nurse.
I work with people who feel deeply and crave more ease and authenticity in the way they relate to the world.
I genuinely love the work that unfolds around this in groups.
What I’ve learned is that healing doesn’t come from just understanding yourself- it comes from being in a space where you feel seen, accepted, and connected to others; a place where belonging takes shape.
I facilitate group therapy that offers this kind of space while creating opportunities for something new to happen in how you relate. Old patterns can begin to shift in real time.
You don’t have to become something different to belong. In the right space, with others who “get it,” you can experience yourself as you are AND find new ways of relating that actually stick.
Group therapy may be the next healing step if you:
Crave a genuinely safe space where you can completely let your guard down without the constant anxiety of being rejected, judged, or misread.
Are exhausted from toning yourself down or wearing a mask just to fit in around people who simply don’t understand your depth.
Are actively trying to establish healthier boundaries but find it incredibly difficult to maintain them in your day-to-day relationships.
Understand your problematic patterns intellectually, yet find they still keep showing up automatically when you are stressed or overwhelmed.
Feel ready for a deeper momentum than standard weekly individual sessions can provide, and want a dynamic environment to actively practice your growth alongside others.
