NEW Support Group for Women Starting Soon!
Call our office at (704) 365-1995 if you're interested in joining!
At any stage of life, there can be challenges, including issues of loss, loneliness, family or financial worries, and struggle with relationships. Join other women in a weekly group to find comfort, support, and a safe, confidential place to address personal issues in your life. Women joining to support other women in a private, small group can be powerful and sustaining.
Kate Culligan, a licensed psychotherapist and group leader with over 30 years of experience, will offer an 8-week group meeting with 6-8 participants. Each prospective group member will privately meet with Kate before joining the group!
