A therapeutic Story Group
8-Week Summer Therapy Experience

This summer, step into a deeper version of Story Group—one that blends the power of narrative, the safety of community, and the presence of a trained therapist.

“When we deny our stories, they define us.
When we own our stories, we get to write the ending.”

Brené Brown, Rising Strong

Led by Dylan Watson, our very own graduate student intern this group will invite you to explore the characters in your life, the roles you’ve carried, and the redemptive possibilities waiting in your story.
This group will also help you learn to listen to yourself, others, and your story to emerge a more wholehearted version of yourself.

Who It’s For

  • Past Story Group participants ready to go deeper

  • Newcomers seeking a powerful way to explore their story and engage in healing

“We all come to be known in the context of story—and healing always takes place in the context of telling our story, being seen, and being known.”
— Curt Thompson, M.D., The Soul of Shame

Story work is not about staying stuck in the past. It’s about giving the past a voice so it no longer has to scream in the present.
