Join licensed therapists (and comrades) for a once a month free support group and peer processing space. We'll start with some mindfulness, teach you a new skill and save time for group sharing. The first meeting will be 5/20 from 5pm - 7pm at Rhizome House, co-facilitated by Madeline Korth, LISW-S anf Leah Hamman, LISW. Please note that these groups are not a replacement for therapy, but can serve as peer support. If you're looking to be linked with therapy resources, we're happy to connect you.

This workshop will introduce the basics of US health insurance, collaboratively discuss tips and tricks to accessing care, and help complete your Medicaid application, if applicable.
