Addictive Cycles

Impulsive behaviors are often attempts to self-soothe. They usually stem from and create further shame, establishing a cycle that feels difficult to break. After many attempts to swear off and failing, some worry or start to believe they can’t change. This is compounded by a culture that pathologizes certain behaviors while praising willpower and self-control. However, these behaviors often make sense when considering someone’s lived experience.

This group is committed to your self-agency and not focused on abstinence, but instead creating inner harmony to decrease reactive internal dynamics. In a supportive and intimate environment, we will focus on the aspects of yourself affected by shame, allowing you to slow down and cultivate awareness of your inner world.

This group's format is experiential and rooted in Internal Family Systems. Group members will participate in professionally led meditations, check-ins, intention-setting, parts mapping, and sculpting exercises, tailored to individual readiness. No prior experience with IFS therapy is necessary.

Members will benefit from the healing experience of being recognized and validated by others who share similar journeys.
