Groups

Below is a list of support groups we feel confident recommending. These groups are facilitated by leaders we have trained and they are using the When Love Hurts material. Support groups typically run fall, winter and spring (not the summer, unfortunately). It is always okay to reach out and ask to have your name added to the waitlist. Support groups are a wonderful place to experience a kind community of women who “get it”.

We hope you find the support you deserve at this challenging time in your life.

When Love Hurts Drop-In Support Group

This group provides an opportunity to witness, share and connect with other women who have experienced intimate partner violence, abuse and sexual assault. Sharing takes many forms, emphasizing “headlines” over details. Support will be experienced by witnessing, expressing feelings and giving space for community. Support includes opportunities for learning from each other and facilitators who will share psycho-educational information, tools and resources. This group is designed to meet the unique needs of individuals as well as the collective community.
