Welcome to your “group therapy season!”
A warm hello to you—the parent, the caregiver, the human who reminds everyone else to breathe while forgetting to breathe themselves. This is your invitation to slow down, get real, and find community in a world that too often tells us to “just keep going.”
There will be various groups available at different points in the year. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you want information about a specific group.
Who’s This For?
The Overthinkers: You’ve replayed yesterday’s tough conversations on loop.
The Burned-Out Advocates: You’re tired of fighting the same uphill battles.
The Hidden Hurters: You look “fine” in public but crumble behind closed doors.
The Hope-Holders: You know there’s more joy ahead—you just need some company on the trek.
Group therapy is a front‑row seat to the beautiful reminder that healing isn’t a solo sport—we borrow each other’s hope, laugh at the mess together, and leave with pockets full of courage we didn’t even know we’d lost.
Why Group Therapy?
Shared Wisdom: Two heads are better than one, but 6-8 heads? Now we’re cooking.
Built-In Accountability: When life gets messy, your circle has your back.
Perspective & Hope: Real stories, real strategies, and real proof that you’re not alone.
Practical coping tools: grounding exercises, quick resets, and systems to lower daily chaos.
Peer wisdom: crowd‑sourced victories on meds, diets, school plans, and specialists.
Space for raw emotions: grief, anger, guilt, relief—nothing is off‑limits here
Trauma‑informed support: guided by a marriage and family therapist who pairs professional expertise with hard‑won personal experience
“What is most personal is most universal.”

Your facilitator
Hi, I’m Kristy Lane, LMFT-Associate, mom of four, PANDAS/PANS veteran, and shamelessly passionate about helping parents heal. I mix evidence-based methods with real-life experience to keep things hopeful, honest, and hopefully fun!
Bring Your Whole Self
This group is built on genuine presence—show up as you are and lean into the messy, the triumphant, and everything in between. Here, your story matters, and your voice carries weight. By speaking your truth in a judgment-free space, you’ll find relief in knowing that others have walked similar paths and understand the weight you’ve been carrying.
A Nurturing Virtual Gathering
Imagine gathering weekly with a small circle of fellow parents—six to eight souls who truly get the exhaustion of advocacy and the sting of isolation. Our secure, HIPAA-compliant video sessions become a lifeline: a place to swap hard-won wisdom, ask the questions you’ve never dared voice, and borrow hope when your own tank is running empty.
What You’ll Take Home
By the end of group therapy, you’ll hold a personalized self-care blueprint—practical tools you can actually use on your busiest days—and a set of rapid-response strategies for managing flare-ups, meltdowns, and burnout. This isn’t just about surviving—it’s about rediscovering your strength, resilience, and the spark of hope that brought you here in the first place.
