Description
This 8-week experiential therapy group is appropriate for individuals who have struggled for an extended period of time with health issues, that have not been definitively diagnosed, were diagnosed prematurely as primarily psychiatric, or were diagnosed years after the person fell ill (including diagnosis with some of today's generally misunderstood illnesses, e.g. chronic fatigue, chronic Lyme disease, environmental illness).
Since it often takes years for patients with these illnesses to find a physician who can diagnose and treat them, they are forced to grapple with a number of issues that those with easily diagnosable illness do not experience. This group is designed to provide a safe, collaborative space to explore the issues, unique to this experience that must be addressed in the healing process.
Facilitated by Darcie Spence, MFT. Location: San Francisco.
