Healing Emotional Wounds Together

Group Healing

Many people who grew up in dysfunctional or emotionally neglectful environments don’t always recognize how much those experiences continue to shape how they feel about themselves.

From the outside, things may look stable. You may be functioning, working, and maintaining relationships. But internally, there can be: a sense that something is wrong, difficulty trusting yourself, emotional shutdown or overwhelm, and feeling like a burden in relationships.

These patterns often don’t make sense until they’re understood in the context of your earlier experiences. LTLIT provides a space to share and rebuild trust together. Connection is the best remedy for people who feel isolated and afraid of being judged. It can feel like a very big risk to take the first step out of shame and fear, and many people feel an incredible unburdening when they realize they are not alone.

Healing Together, Growing Strong

What This Group Is

This is a small, therapist-led group for people who want to better understand themselves in the context of their upbringing.

The focus is not on surface-level coping, but on:

• making sense of your patterns

• understanding where they come from

• developing a more grounded and compassionate relationship with yourself

The group integrates a trauma-informed approach, including:

• Internal Family Systems (IFS)

• DBT-informed skills

• mindfulness and self-compassion

What You Might Recognize in Yourself

This group may be a good fit if you:

• feel like something is “off” but can’t fully explain why

• struggle with self-doubt, shame or overthinking

• shut down emotionally in certain situations

• feel like a burden in relationships

• had an upbringing that was confusing, inconsistent, or emotionally disconnected

What the Group Is Like

• Small (typically 6–8 people)

• Structured, but conversational

• Focused on understanding, not pressure to share

• A space where you don’t have to explain everything from scratch

Many people find that hearing others describe similar internal experiences can be one of the most powerful parts of the process.

Important Note

This group is not about reliving or detailing traumatic experiences.

It’s about understanding how those experiences have shaped your internal world—and beginning to relate to yourself differently.

Is This a Good Fit?

This group tends to resonate with people who are:

• thoughtful and self-aware

• curious about themselves

• open to deeper exploration

You don’t need to have everything figured out to join.

It’s completely normal to feel unsure about group therapy, especially if you’re used to handling things on your own.

If you’re curious, we can talk briefly to see if it feels like a good fit.
