One of my three lively groups, online or in-person, can help you with community, self esteem, and emotional intimacy.
You may want help with your closest relationships, or with your creative work, or with your job, or because you seek a sense of meaning, or of community. Perhaps you want to change your own behavior, but have not been able to make that change happen. You may be the adult child of a narcissistic mother or father who sees that you are still affected by your parent's problems. You may have heard or read something about Jungian therapy that appealed to you. Perhaps you have tried CBT and now want to work more in depth. You probably want relief from some form of pain or isolation.
