Next Story Groups Available

Women's 10 week group: January 7- March 11, 2025

Tuesdays 1:30-3:30 CST on Zoom

The Story Group runs 10 weeks and is $750 total, which is $75 per two hour session a week. This will be billed weekly, but commitment to the entire 10 weeks is required.

Each participant will write and read their own stories while also engaging in others’ stories. The group experience is unique in providing a safe environment to be seen, known and loved. Groups bring somatic healing in ways that simply listening to podcasts, reading or one-on-one meetings cannot provide.

We all long to be known. We are best known, and our life circumstances are best seen, in the company of others. Story Groups are a profound experience that invite you to step deeply into the themes of your life within the context of a supportive and facilitated environment. Emily will coach you to write particular stories from childhood that involve trauma of any degree. She will facilitate and train group participants how to engage each story with kindness, care and empathy. In a group, each individual has the opportunity to get counseling while also learning to be better at listening and engaging others. Healing and restoration occur when we courageously explore our stories of pain and harm. We also gain wisdom, curiosity and insight when we hold one another’s stories.

This is a “find your people” opportunity!

Sign up soon, this group is limited to 6 participants. Begin 2025 with good care and connection! Email Emily directly if you want to participate or have any questions: emily@storymattersinitiative.com
