Have you been scarred by bad support groups in the past? Unfortunately, we've heard all about them from clients over the years.
Here are the qualities to look for when searching for a high-quality support group:
1. A qualified person is leading it
This is someone who is either certified in facilitating groups or is an expert in the topic you need support on (ideally-- both!) The leader should create a safe space where people feel comfortable to participate and be more open minded.
2. Not a vent session
While venting can be be a form of support, it can also overrun a space and make it feel toxic if left unchecked. Ideally, a support group is somewhere you can listen and learn from others in group, and work through problems together!
3. You leave with tools you can apply anywhere
We're not going to be able to change others, but we can learn tools and strategies to better react to the world around us. Like building a muscle, the more you use these new resources, the better you can adapt to issues in your everyday life and be the person you want to be.
Our new co-parenting support group, Co-Parenting Confidence Circles, checks all of these boxes! Starting October 12th, this exclusive client perk will be led by our Power Partner, Maria Natapov, BeH2O® Certified Coach & Rapid Resolution Therapy® Facilitator!
If you're tired of running in circles with your co-parent, come to our community support group and see if we can't stop that cycle. Learn more here: https://foundationsfamilylaw.com/coparenting-confidence-circles/
