Online Group Therapy for Women Healing from Emotional Abuse — Louisiana, Florida and Virginia
A small, closed group for women ready to heal, find clarity, and stop questioning themselves
This is a structured, therapist-led online group for women healing from emotional abuse or controlling relationships. The group meets weekly via telehealth for 8 weeks with no more than eight participants, creating a contained space where you can process shared experiences, rebuild trust in your own perceptions, and move forward with support.
Who This Group Is For
This group is designed for women who:
Have been in — or are leaving — an emotionally abusive or controlling relationship
Find themselves constantly second-guessing their own feelings and experiences
Feel unseen and unheard in their relationship — like they keep asking for more connection, understanding, or help, and it never comes
Struggle with people-pleasing, anxiety, or a lost sense of self connected to relationship patterns
Are ready to do this work alongside others who truly understand it
Are not currently in crisis
One of the most isolating parts of emotional abuse is believing your experience is unique, or that no one would understand. This group is specifically designed to address that — because being witnessed by other women who have lived something similar is its own form of healing.

Women currently in psychiatric crisis or requiring crisis intervention
Those who are still in an actively unsafe living situation and need safety planning as a primary focus
Individuals whose primary concern falls outside feeling unseen and unheard in their relationship, or emotional abuse or controlling relationships
Men or individuals who do not identify as women — this group is specifically designed for the shared experience of women in this context
Those who are unable to commit to 8 weekly sessions
If you are unsure whether this group is the right fit, a brief consultation is available, or we can discuss it during your individual session.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this group therapy or a support group? This is therapist-led group therapy, not a peer support group. It is structured, clinically guided, and led by a licensed therapist.
Do I need to be currently in or recently out of an abusive relationship? Not necessarily. Some participants are actively leaving, others are years out and still processing the impact. What matters is that you’re feeling invisible and invalidated in your relationship, or emotional abuse/controlling relationships are central to what you're working through.
Do I have to be in individual therapy at the same time? You can do both if you want to, but it’s not required.
Where is this available? This group is available via telehealth to women located in Louisiana, Florida and Virginia.
How do I join? Space is limited to eight participants per cohort. To find out whether this group is a good fit, schedule a consultation, or we can discuss it in your individual session.
What is your refund policy? The $300 registration payment is refundable if you withdraw from the group on or before April 24, 2026 — one week before the cohort begins. After that date, payments are non-refundable, including if you need to leave the group early. If an unexpected hardship arises, reach out directly and we can talk through it.
The next cohort begins May 1, 2026. Space is limited to 8 participants.
