Dates: Coming in Winter/Spring 2026

Identifying as a man in today’s world can feel complicated and confusing. It can be difficult to find a safe place to explore more about what it means “to be a man” or live along the spectrum of masculinity. It’s also challenging to find a supportive male community that nurtures real depth, vulnerability, support, sharing, and connection.

Are you a man and/or identify along the spectrum of the masculine and looking for that safe, supportive space to explore yourself, your identity, and your masculinity in community?

Empowered Connection Men’s Group Therapy Series is a conscious space for men to share in: intentional & meaningful connection, developing a healthy personal and shared masculinity, community, vulnerability, mutual support, personal growth and personal empowerment.

Each week we cover a specific theme in-depth using a variety of therapeutic tools and modalities, relational practices, and somatic exercises to provide space for exploration, inspiration, connection, growth, sharing, collaborating, and reauthoring of our own experience as men.

Themes:

Identity + Masculinity: Becoming Authentically Ourselves as Men

Sexuality + Intimacy

Emotional Awareness + Intelligence

Relational Skills + Conscious Connection

Values + Integrity

Building Community & Systems of Positive Masculinity, Inspiration & Mutual Support

Community is an anchor and resource for our support and growth. The group therapy experience aids in bringing these themes to life in our lives in more meaningful and empowering ways and exploring them with other men while in a conscious community.

Come as you are. We are here to meet you where you are at and provide a safe space for connecting more deeply to yourself, to other men + masculine-identifying people, and to a greater potential. Be prepared to be both supported and challenged to grow.

– Special, affordable 6 session group experience: only $225 for six 90 minute sessions

– Straight, queer, and lifestyle affirming

– Open to all men and those who identify along the spectrum of “the masculine”

The Relationship Wellness Check-In

What is the RWC?

The Relationship Wellness Check-In (RWC) is a workshop for couples that includes three 50-minute sessions aimed to uncover your relationship’s strengths and challenges in the areas of intimacy, communication, conflict resolution, and emotional connection.

The 3-Session Process

  • The first session will focus on learning the evidence-based skills necessary for long-term relational wellness and understanding the behaviors that threaten it.
  • The second session will review your results from the Gottman Sound Relationship House Assessment to understand how your relationship dynamics contribute to your relational security and connection.
  • The third session finishes this process by providing you with tools and resources to help you improve communication, conflict, and intimacy for maintaining your relational wellness.

The Gottman Assessment

The RWC uses the Gottman Sound Relationship House Assessment to determine how you each show up in your relationship emotionally and behaviorally. It is based on 40+ years of research from over 150,000 couples by Dr. John Gottman on why relationships succeed or fail. You will be taking this assessment independently before our first session and we will be going over the results together so that I can provide you with personalized feedback.
