Support groups offer information about a disease or condition and its symptoms and treatment. Some people assume that support groups are like group therapy, which is far from the truth. Support groups often host speakers, such as doctors and nurses, who share current treatment and research information about your illness or condition. Talking to others in a similar situation offers you the opportunity to share experiences and practical advice and learn more about what you are facing. And who knows? You may make some friends while you're there!
As part of National Wear Red Day, this free event will offer free blood pressure, blood sugar and cholesterol screenings, as well as information on sleep disorders, smoking cessation, stroke risk and nutrition.

Do your emotions seem to have minds of their own? Does it seem like they sometimes react in ways that you don’t understand? If so, you are not the only one! This group will help you to identify and explore your emotions from an Internal Family Systems perspective in order for you to feel more whole and more “in charge” of your own responses.
Each week the group will engage in learning to identify the feelings inside us, explore emotions and what information they for us, correct misperceptions about “bad parts” or “bad feelings”, and have the opportunity engage in group processing. Participants will also be provided the opportunity to process personal “stuck spots” in their lives and relationships guided by Internal Family Systems Therapy.
This group is led by Rebecca Beaver LPC, Internal Family Systems Therapist Level 1, EFT Certified Therapist, AADC, Certified Clinical Trauma Professional.
To reserve your spot, please call Tresa Litteral or Tish Smith at 304.526.2049.
