Story Group

“Listen to your life. See it for the fathomless mystery it is. In the boredom and pain of it, no less than in the excitement and gladness: touch, taste, smell your way to the holy and hidden heart of it, because in the last analysis all moments are key moments” - Frederick Buechner

What:

It is my belief that no one escapes harm in this life and that we all have stories from our past that need healing and restoration. However, there are very few contexts in which these narrative dimensions of our lives are given proper space to heal in an intentional and supported way. I believe this can only happen when we courageously risk telling our stories to others.

In this group, you will have the opportunity to explore some of the particularities of your personal story and address some of the relational and emotional impacts of the harm, neglect, abuse, and trauma that you have experienced. What this means is that in this group you will write about and share a story of harm from your childhood/adolescence, helping you to understand and reflect on the recurring themes in your life, all within a supportive and guided small group led by myself.

When:

This group will meet once a week for approximately 90 minutes over an 6-8 week period, beginning on Thursday, May 1st, at 7pm PST.

Location:

For convenience and to allow participants from out of state, this group will be held virtually on Zoom.

Cost:

The total cost for this group is $400. Some limited scholarships available for those in need.

Registration Deadline: April 23rd, 2025.
