Details:
6 Week Men's Virtual Group
Mondays, 1:00pm - 2:30pm
Beginning on Monday, January 20th, 2025
​
The group meets weekly and is $100 per group. Spaces are limited.
An individual session with the group leader is required to ensure that it is a good fit for all participants.
This group is a combination of psycho-educational and experiential exercises designed to help members get a better understanding of themselves and their relationship to intimacy with themselves and others.
It also lays the groundwork for group members to begin to connect childhood experiences with attachment and connections to patterns and behaviors which hold them back from achieving that in their adult life. This introductory group focuses on helping those who are asking themselves:
-
"Why do I seem to struggle so much in relationships?"
-
“Should I be concerned about my sexual behaviors or use of pornography?”
-
"I'm so successful in other areas of my life but at times feel clueless in relationships."
-
"Why am I not able to stop doing things that hurt me or my loved ones?”
-
"Why am I having so much trouble finding a meaningful relationship?"
-
"Why do I often feel like I'm on the outside looking in?"
-
"Why do I keep picking the 'wrong' kind of people?"
-
"How can I do something more meaningful than Grindr or other apps?"

What makes us different?
Intimacy
We don’t discuss intimacy.
We do intimacy.
Learning to be relational comes from being relational.
The intimate relationship is an integral part of the healing experience.
Our staff works intimately with our individual clients to help them discover and see their authentic selves.
We help couples develop or deepen their intimacy on all levels and to remove the obstacles that hold them back from feeling more intimately connected.
Our Intimacy Groups are living, breathing experiences of intimacy.
For us, the relationship between therapist and client is sacred.
It’s more than someone to tell stories to.
It’s more than “a friend who listens.”
It’s more than someone telling you to do “self care.”
It’s more than someone who gives you advice.
The relationship with your therapist should be one of the most intimate experiences of your life
At the Center for Intimacy Recovery it is.
