Support Groups for Emotional and Narcissistic Abuse
Healing doesn't only happen one-on-one.

There's something that happens when you sit in a room, even a virtual one, with other person who truly get it. Who don't need you to explain why you stayed, or why it still hurts, or why you second-guess yourself constantly. Who already know, because they've been there too.
​
That's the heart of both of my groups, and now there are two ways to find that community, no matter where you are in your healing.

Finding Clarity is your foundation, a structured group for individuals beginning to heal from narcissistic and emotional abuse.

Holding Clarity is your ongoing home, a process group for graduates who want a space to return to whenever life calls for it.

What is Finding Clarity?

Finding Clarity is a structured support group specifically for individuals healing from narcissistic abuse, emotional abuse, and toxic or controlling relationships. It’s not just a place to vent.

 

It’s a facilitated, trauma-informed group experience designed to help you:​

  • Understand what you experienced and why it affected you the way it did

  • Break through the self-doubt and confusion that abuse leaves behind

  • Rebuild your sense of self-worth and trust in your own perceptions

  • Learn practical tools for setting boundaries and protecting your energy

  • Find community with individuals who understand your experience without judgment

What is Holding Clarity?

Holding Clarity is an ongoing process group for individuals who've already completed Finding Clarity and want a space to keep coming back to. It's not a repeat of the curriculum, and it's not just a place to vent.

 

It's a facilitated, trauma-informed group experience designed to help you:​

  • Process whatever life is bringing up for you right now, at whatever stage you're in

  • Hold onto the clarity and growth you've already worked hard to build

  • Navigate new challenges, setbacks, or triggers with people who understand

  • Stay connected to a community that already knows your story

  • Keep showing up for your own healing, without pressure or a fixed timeline

Who is the Finding Clarity group for?

This group is for people who:
• Have been in a relationship (romantic, family, or otherwise) with someone narcissistic,
controlling, or emotionally abusive


• Are no longer in the relationship but still feel the effects, such as confusion, anxiety, self-
doubt, or a sense of loss, they can’t explain


• Are in the process of leaving and need support and clarity


• Feel isolated because people in their lives don’t fully understand what they went through


• Are ready to stop just surviving and start actually healing

 

You don’t need any formal diagnosis to join. You don’t need to have your story perfectly sorted. You just need to recognize yourself in what you’re reading here.

Who is the Holding Clarity group for?

This group is for people who:

  • Have completed Finding Clarity and want a space to keep coming back to

  • Are still processing the effects of narcissistic, controlling, or emotionally abusive relationships, wherever they are in that process

  • Are navigating new challenges, whether that's co-parenting, dating again, family dynamics, or simply life after abuse

  • Feel the value of community and don't want to lose that connection once the structured group ends

  • Are ready to keep healing at their own pace, without a curriculum or a finish line

 

You don't need to have it all figured out. You don't need to be "done" healing. You just need to want a space that's yours to return to, with people who already understand your journey.

What makes Finding Clarity different?

Finding Clarity isn’t a drop-in support group. It’s a structured, facilitated experience led by me, a licensed therapist with specialized training in trauma,  domestic violence, and narcissistic abuse recovery.

 

That means:
• Sessions are guided, not just open sharing
• We work through evidence-based content, not just conversation
• The group is kept intentionally small so every person feels seen and heard
• I hold the space with clear boundaries so it stays safe for everyone


Group therapy can also be a meaningful complement to individual therapy. If you’re on my waitlist for individual sessions, this is a powerful way to start your healing now.

What makes Holding Clarity different?

Holding Clarity isn't a curriculum or a class. It's an ongoing, facilitated process group led by me, a licensed therapist with specialized training in trauma, domestic violence, and narcissistic abuse recovery.

That means:

  • Sessions are guided and held with intention, not just open venting

  • You bring what's alive for you, and we process it together with clinical support

  • The group stays a safe, contained space with clear boundaries

  • Because everyone has completed Finding Clarity, there's no need to explain the backstory, you can just show up and be understood

 

Holding Clarity can also be a meaningful complement to individual therapy. It's a space to keep your healing moving between sessions, or to stay connected to community while you continue your work one-on-one.

Common Questions about Group Therapy

Is group therapy as effective as individual therapy?
Research supports group therapy as highly effective for trauma and abuse recovery, particularly because the group itself becomes part of the healing. Hearing others' stories can reduce shame, normalize your experience, and help you see your situation more clearly. For many people, group and individual therapy together are more powerful than either alone.

 

What if I'm not comfortable sharing in a group?
You're never required to share more than you want to. You can participate by listening. Over time, most people find that the safety of the group makes sharing feel more natural, but there's no pressure and no timeline.

 

Is everything shared in the group confidential?
What's shared in the group stays in the group. As the facilitator, I hold the same confidentiality standards as individual therapy (with the same legal exceptions). I also ask all group members to commit to confidentiality as a condition of participation.

 

What's the difference between Finding Clarity and Holding Clarity?
Finding Clarity is a structured, 6-week group that walks you through the foundational work of understanding and healing from narcissistic and emotional abuse. Holding Clarity is an ongoing process group for individuals who've completed Finding Clarity and want a space to keep coming back to. Think of Finding Clarity as where you build the foundation, and Holding Clarity as where you continue the work, at your own pace, for as long as you need it.

 

Do I have to complete Finding Clarity before joining Holding Clarity?
Yes. Holding Clarity is designed specifically for graduates of Finding Clarity. Because everyone has already done that foundational work, the group can skip the introductions and get right to processing, with people who already understand your story. If you haven't done Finding Clarity yet, that's the place to start.

 

Which group is right for me?
If you're just beginning to make sense of what happened, or you want structure and evidence-based tools, start with Finding Clarity. If you've already completed Finding Clarity and want an ongoing space to keep processing and stay connected, Holding Clarity is your next step. Not sure? Reach out and we'll figure it out together.
