Group Therapy in Phoenix

Gathering online throughout Arizona

What group is like:

  • Small group of people (max 8) who share many of the same concerns and struggles

  • Meeting weekly via secure video for 60 minute sessions.

  • Conversations are supported and facilitated- you won’t be left to figure it out on your own and you won’t be forced to share.

  • Space to talk about what’s happening in your life, be heard and understood by people who truly get it.

  • Opportunity to learn from others’ experiences.

Group therapy isn’t about performing or having the “right things to say”- it’s about showing up and discovering what happens when you’re met by others who actually “get” it.

It’s completely normal to feel unsure about group therapy. You might be wondering:

  • What if I don’t know what to say?

  • What if it’s awkward or I just feel weird?

  • What if I feel judged or don’t fit in?

  • What if I shut down or share too much and feel exposed?

  • What if this doesn’t work as well as individual therapy? Would I be I wasting my time?

It’s common to have questions or hesitations about group- many people do. Those concerns are welcome here and often become part of what makes the experience meaningful. You won’t be expected to share before you’re ready. Part of the process is creating a space where people can show up honestly and at their own pace, and many people begin simply by listening.

There is a common misconception that individual therapy is the only way to achieve deep growth. However, decades of clinical research show that group therapy is highly effective and frequently parallels or exceeds individual work for navigating life transitions, strengthening boundaries, and breaking repeating relational patterns.

Individual therapy gives you insight, but group therapy acts as a living laboratory. It provides a rare, safe space where you can actively practice using your voice, setting boundaries, and trusting your gut in real-time with people who truly get it.

How I Guide Our Group Space

Group therapy isn’t just a collection of people talking—it is a space that is intentionally guided, structurally supported, and clinically held. As the therapist leading our group, my role is to cultivate safety and momentum by:

  • Creating the conditions for you to feel entirely comfortable landing, dropping your guard, and sharing in your own timing.

  • Tracking the group's pulse by paying close attention to what is being said, what is being felt in the room, and how members are connecting with one another.

  • Weaving in skills and education right when you need them most, transforming raw discussion into practical tools for emotional regulation and boundary-setting.

  • Deepening the reflection through purposeful guidance. We use our time to look beneath the surface of our experiences—uncovering patterns, naming shared themes, and listening for the inner wisdom that points to your next step.

  • Anchoring the truth of shared humanity, ensuring you look around the room and realize that you are absolutely not navigating this wilderness alone.

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.
