Skills Groups for Women

Whether you're in therapy or want to supplement what you're already doing, our skills groups offer something powerful: concrete tools, genuine peer support, and real strategies you'll actually use.

In a small group of women, you'll build a personalized toolkit for managing anxiety, emotional regulation, depression, and breaking old coping patterns. You'll learn from me and from each other, women who understand where you're coming from and are committed to growth, just like you.

Over 5 weeks, we'll explore what works for your specific challenges, practice new skills in a safe space, and create a maintenance plan to sustain what you've built long after the group ends.

What You'll Get:

  • Concrete, evidence-based strategies you can use immediately

  • A personalized toolkit tailored to your needs

  • Genuine peer support from women who understand

  • A roadmap for maintaining your progress

  • A small, cohesive group (3-8 women) for real connection and safety

  • You control what you share and are never pressured to share personal information

How It Works:
Groups meet weekly for 5 weeks. We have ongoing enrollments, so you can join the next available group that fits your schedule.

Current offerings are listed below.

5-Week Women’s Anxiety Skills Group

Wednesdays, 5:30pm-6:30pm PST
Virtual


  • Decode Your Nervous System
    Map your unique stress triggers, understand fight/flight/freeze states, and learn real-time techniques to calm your body when high alert strikes.

  • Break the Worry Loop
    Identify catastrophic thinking, interrupt spiraling thoughts, and reframe overthinking before it takes over your day.

  • Somatic Distress Tolerance
    Gain practical, body-based tools to process and release overwhelm directly from your physical system rather than pushing it down.

  • Move From Paralysis to Action
    Shift out of analysis paralysis so you can make confident decisions, set clear boundaries, and take meaningful values-based steps forward.

  • Reflection & Practical Application
    Practice new somatic and cognitive skills in a supportive environment, apply them to daily life, and receive guided peer feedback.

  • Long-Term Maintenance Plan
    Build a personalized nervous system care plan and relapse-prevention strategy to maintain calm and resilience long after the program ends.

What you’ll experience in the group

Learn to identify what triggers your anxiety and build practical tools to manage your symptoms.

Over six weeks, you'll explore how anxious thoughts take hold, learn to challenge negative thinking patterns, and practice techniques to relax your body and calm your mind.

You'll leave with strategies for reducing your reaction to triggers and approaching anxiety with greater mindfulness and self-compassion.

Find support and genuine connection in a safe, judgment-free space surrounded by supportive all women.

Fee: $60 per group meeting or $250 if paid in full.
Just a quick note on what to expect: this group focuses on learning practical skills to manage and ease anxiety, rather than deep personal processing. You're always in control of what you share, and there’s no pressure to open up about personal matters. We're here to learn, practice, and support each other with Cynthia as your guide. If individual therapy is recommended at any point, Cynthia will work with you to connect with additional support.
