Thriving in Community: Support for Women Navigating Perimenopause
Now Enrolling for May 2024
Rather than honoring the perimenopause transition for the rite of passage that it is, so many women have their experiences overly medicalized or shrouded in shame. We wander through in isolation, feeling lost.
It’s time to shift the narrative of perimenopause.
Thriving in Community is designed to be a supportive container for women in California navigating the (often bumpy) perimenopause transition. If you are craving connection, understanding and a safe place to process your experience. Join us.
The group will be part talk, part creative process, and part psychoeducation. This group is specifically for women living in the state of California.
Commitment: 8-week closed group, beginning May 2024
Time: Thursdays, 6:00 - 7:30pm
Investment: $400

NOT CURRENTLY ENROLLING
Ours by Write: A Therapeutic Writing Workshop for Women
We are storytelling creatures by nature. It’s how we make sense of ourselves and the world around us, but too often as women we’re discouraged from sharing our truths.
Join us for an 8-week autobiographical writing group for women as we unearth, explore and voice our stories, and support as other women do the same.
We’ll ask: What stories are you aching to tell? What narratives are you curious to explore? Which stories have you inherited and which stories are you (re)writing for yourself?
Each group meeting will include a writing warm-up, sharing of writing developed outside of group, supportive feedback and a closing ritual. The group will culminate in an optional 3-hour workshop where we create small handmade books of our writing.
This workshop is ideal for women who:
- are already participating in individual therapy and would like to explore writing as an adjunctive form of healing
- have stacks of journals, and want to give their words more space to breathe
- have always wanted to write, but have felt fearful, shy or otherwise shutdown
- are seeking creative, supportive community
Group meets weekly from 7-9pm | Mondays, March 2 – April 27, 2020 | Rockridge Location
This workshop is focused on the process of writing and expression, not the craft of writing. No experience is required!
Cost: $440 for 8 weeks | Maximum enrollment 6 people
(Cost does not include optional final book-making workshop)
