Groups
3Keys to Self Understanding Therapy Group
What: This is an ongoing therapeutic group for those individuals who are interested in starting deep emotional healing therapy based upon the 3Keys to Self-Understanding therapy model.
Who is eligible to participate? Any woman who has first completed an orientation to the 3Keys model and has had MBTI & Enneagram type verified by a 3Keys certified practitioner.
Why: Many individuals are seeking deep emotional healing and recovery from disruptive or destructive patterns in their lives. They may not be able to afford individual therapy or prefer to heal in the group setting. Although 1:1 therapy is recommended to begin this process of deep emotional healing and bring about the most expedient fundamental change in one’s life, this group will provide an opportunity to begin the process of recovering from unhealthy or destructive coping techniques and patterns in their lives in a group setting.
When: Weekly meetings on Friday mornings from 9:30-11:30am, starting August 15, 2014 and running through May 15, 2015. All participants must participate in an initial screening process to be completed prior to the start date of group, which includes individual meetings with therapist to prepare for group participation. Number of individual sessions will be determined on a case by case basis. All meetings will be held in the therapist’s office located in Webster Groves, MO.
Cost: Costs for participation in this group are $45 per group therapy session, per participant. Participants will be asked to contract for the full 9 months, and will be offered several payment options to choose from. Participants will be required to pay therapist’s standard hourly rates for their individual screening sessions.
Potential participants will be required to undergo an individual screening process with therapist prior to the 9 month therapeutic group to determine therapeutic fit for both the group and the participant. Participants will be chosen based upon compatibility of needs to the purpose of the group, as well as individuals whose well-being will not be endangered by the group experience. Referrals will be made for those participants not appropriate for the 3Keys therapy group.

Therapeutic Support Group for Women In Heterosexual Relationships Who Are Coming Out as Lesbian or Questioning Their Sexual Orientation
What: This is a therapeutic support group for married women or women who have been recently married to a man in a heterosexual relationship and are now coming out as lesbians or questioning their sexual orientation.
Who is eligible to participate? Any woman who is currently or recently been married to a man in a heterosexual relationship (within the last year) and is coming out as a lesbian or questioning their sexual identity.
Why: Married women are a significant but invisible part of the lesbian population who are often disregarded when it comes to providing resources and support. At this time, Saint Louis has a lack of therapeutic resources designed specifically for the LGBTQ culture overall, but specifically lacks supports and services designed for lesbians who are married to a man and undergoing the coming out process. This therapeutic support group has been designed to address this disparity in resources and provide support and guidance so that these women do not have to exist in isolation but rather can begin to build their own supportive, rewarding and gratifying lives during this time of transition.
When: Weekly meetings for one and a half hours and running for 8 week. All participants must also participate in an initial screening session that will be completed prior to the start date of group. All meetings will be held in the therapist’s office located in Webster Groves, MO.
Cost: Costs for participation in this group are $25 per session, per participant. Participants will be asked to contract for the full 7 weeks, and can pay in full prior to the group beginning or weekly if needed for financial reasons. Participants will also be required to pay an additional nominal fee for their individual screening session.
Potential participants will be required to undergo an individual screening session with therapist prior to the 9 week therapeutic support group to determine therapeutic fit for the group. Participants will be chosen based upon compatibility of needs to the purpose of the group, as well as individuals whose well-being will not be endangered by the group experience. Referrals will be made for those participants not appropriate for the group.
This group will meet weekly, dates to be determined for 2014.
