About the group
Loneliness isn’t just being alone—it’s feeling unseen or disconnected. This group offers a space where you can show up exactly as you are, without performing or explaining. Together, we’ll explore what loneliness means to each of us and gently rebuild connection, understanding, and a sense of belonging.
Group Goal
The group aims to cultivate connection, emotional resilience, and a renewed sense of belonging for each participant. Through shared experiences, reflective exercises, and supportive discussions, we work toward easing the weight of loneliness and strengthening tools for coping. The goal is to help participants understand their patterns, form meaningful connections, and move toward a life where they feel seen, supported, and less alone—at their own pace.
