Circle Of Healing from Abuse
Who Should Participate: Tuesday: Circle of Healing is a group in Seattle for Healing from chronic Verbal & other Emotional abuse. Did you grow up in a family where there was chronic Verbal Abuse? Have you been in a partnership with someone who was Emotionally Abusive?
The chronic stress of living with an Emotionally Abusive Parent, Partner, or Boss can lead to mental and physical health problems. Like many others, you may be experiencing some of the following PTSD symptoms: depression and/or anxiety (maybe mild and recurrent), flashbacks, marked distress or phobia of stimuli related to the abuse, intrusive thoughts of abuse, numbing, isolation, anger management or other behavioral control issues, difficulties concentrating, exaggerated startle response, and sense of diminished future.
Group therapy provides support for survivors of abusive relationships, who often feel isolated in their distress. The Circle of Healing provides members with a ToolKit for managing and alleviating symptoms of abuse. The symptoms require a specific set of skills. The most efficient way of learning these skills is in a group setting. Without the skills needed to alleviate PTSD symptoms, progress is very slow and uneven. See Group Therapy at http://www.CircleOfHealing.us
Dates/Times Offered: Tuesday Evening Group
Screening Fee: $100
Fee: $50 per week

• Body image and menopause
• How do I care for myself when I become an elder?

Diabetic Women in Menopause
Who Should Participate: In this group, you will find support around changes
that come with aging, menopause and managing diabetes. It is important to get outside of your own world, to connect with
others and find support for this daily, sometimes minute-to-minute challenge. I have been diabetic for 31 years and
have had few symptoms from diabetes until pre-menopause and menopause came into my life. This group will help you track
symptoms and make some sense of them. We will cover stress reduction and learn techniques to decrease stress. We
will also work with improving our approach to life using proven brain techniques that create new neural pathways, so that we
may remove traumas, obstacles and create a healthier body. Verbal and art expression will also be used. Through
this group, you will find a better balance within yourself with intention, focus, and creating the courage to work with your
body. Let's move toward whole health, mind, body and spirit! Groups will be a 4 week at a time commitment.

On Telephone Calls to Therapists
As a webmaster, I frequently call counselors and I am caught off balance when I don't get an
answering machine. I say, "Excuse me, I was expecting to talk to a e and wasn't expecting to talk to a real person!"
Counselors in private practice are small business people--often really small--and usually have no
employees. Counselors usually handle the telephone, counsel individual clients and groups, get the mail, write the letters, do the
bookkeeping, market their practices, do the taxes and everything else that needs to be done to stay in business. Counselors in private
practice often see clients in the evening, so it is usually better to call during the day.
All this to explain that when you finally decide to call a counselor and see about joining a therapy
group, you will probably get an answering machine. It may take a couple of days for the counselor to get back to you. Even if they
call you back immediately, if there is another voice on your answering machine they may be afraid that they will be violating your
confidentiality if they leave a message for you where someone else may hear them. So they may have to hang up without leaving a message.
Be sure when you leave your message that you tell the counselor whether it's all right to leave a message when he or she calls back.
And finally, if you don't hear back--please call again. Leave your name and telephone number.
Say the number slowly and distinctly and say it twice. I can remember listening to messages as many as twelve times trying to identify
all the numbers; Counselors really try, but you've got to do your part too. Thanks.
