The Power of Women’s Group Therapy: Healing in Connection
Some healing can only happen in the presence of others.
Women’s group therapy offers something both deeply personal and profoundly communal. It’s a space where we can see ourselves reflected in others, discover we’re not alone in our challenges, and draw strength from shared wisdom.
Women’s group work is less about fixing or advising, and more about witnessing, relating, and exploring the ways we show up in relationships. The group becomes a relational mirror where unconscious patterns surface, and where the safety of genuine connection makes room for honest reflection, and deeper intimacy with ourselves and others.
Just as powerful as one-on-one work, there’s something uniquely healing about being in a space with other women who are also doing the work. Many women find that the insight, accountability, and intimacy of group work deepens their healing in ways they didn’t expect.
A Place to Be Human, Together
We’ve all learned ways of being that keep us safe. We’ve been taught what’s okay to feel, and which parts of ourselves are welcome in relationship. These patterns of relating kept us safe as we were growing up. They were necessary and wise ways of being. But as we get older, the very strategies that once kept us safe can constrict our ability to feel joy, and to experience freedom and deeper intimacy.
But if the wound is relational, so is the medicine. What was wounded in the web of relationship can be healed within it.
What Women’s Group Therapy Offers
• A deeper relationship with yourself
• A space for relational honesty
• A supportive and attuned community of women
What Unfolds in a Session
We’ll come together and share. We’ll tend to our thoughts and feelings as they arise, moment to moment, in connection with one another. We’ll bravely share what we are noticing, what stirs or shuts us down. In the safety of the group, old relational patterns will surface, giving us the opportunity to witness ourselves more deeply. And with this increased self-attunement, we can practice relating differently.
Although we might touch on our experiences outside the circle, the heart of the work lives in how that material takes shape in the room, in real time, with other women who are showing up too. We’ll practice attending to the present moment and honoring what is here, now. Together, we’ll turn our attention and imagination to a different way of relating, cultivate attunement to a deeper internal space, and connect authentically.
Woven into this framework is the spirit of the women’s circle, as inspired by Jalaja Bonheim’s work with the sacred feminine. Here, deep listening becomes a sacred act. Each woman’s truth is honored without interruption, judgment, or agenda. And as that truth is received, the pressure to present ourselves in a particular way falls away, making room for the freedom to slow down, soften, and attune to what is most alive in the moment.
