Join Our Free Support Group: Navigating Workforce Changes Together
The recent federal government workforce cuts and return-to-office mandates have left many employees in the DC and Northern Virginia area facing uncertainty, stress, and difficult transitions. If you find yourself struggling with these changes, you're not alone.
At Think Happy Live Healthy, we understand the challenges of living with these changes and are here to support you through them. We are offering a free virtual processing group to help you in coping with uncertainty in a safe, supportive and confidential environment.

-
Space to process your thoughts and feelings related to recent job changes.

Support in building resilience and confidence during transitions.

Coping strategies for managing workplace stress and uncertainty.

About THLH Groups
Our groups at THLH are psychoeducational rather than therapy based. This means that each group will teach skills that will empower you to lead a healthier and happier life.​
​
If your therapist has recommended that you try group therapy, it's normal to be a little unsure of what to expect. When you go through a normal therapy session, you share your feelings one on one with a professional, and you don't have to even consider the thoughts of others. Group therapy can feel a little bit different, especially if you're not someone who easily opens up to strangers.
If your therapist has suggested group therapy, they're doing so for good reason. Engaging in a group therapy session can help you to understand that you're not alone in what you're going through. It can give you insight into how other people deal with similar issues, helping you find solutions in your own life. Regardless of the benefits, it's normal to be a little apprehensive about your first group therapy session.
While different groups can function differently, most follow the same guidelines. Participants are required to respect and listen to one another. The therapist or facilitator works to create a safe space in which everyone can share their experiences. If you don't feel comfortable talking right away, that's ok. It's normal to take a session or two to sit back and listen to others, giving you a chance to grow comfortable before you decide to share.
Group therapy can be a great way to practice active listening and other social skills. The facilitator can help members do this by encouraging conversation between one another. Talking to other members of the group in the safe space of a group therapy session can help you grow your confidence in talking to your family and friends about issues with which you struggle.
