GROUP THERAPY
What is Group Therapy?
Group Therapy is a setting where 5-6 people gather in a confidential, committed, safe place where topics are discussed and shared. These types of sharings may include personal experiences, struggles, and victories. At times, it may be a “psychoeducational” platform where the therapist may lead about a certain topic and teach on a particular subject and share her knowledge/insight.

What is Betrayal Trauma Group?
Betrayal Trauma is when your spouse or partner has lied to you and left your heart in pieces due to an emotional/sexual affair, cheating, porn/sex addiction, and other sexually acting out behaviors that you may have “accidentally” discovered or found out about from a third party. Whatever the case, you found out the truth and now feeling utterly broken, confused, hopeless, depressed, angry, paranoid and just a rollercoaster of emotions. Studies show that betrayed partners suffer from PTSD symptoms like hypervigilance, anxiety, helplessness, and nervousness.
Why join Betrayal Trauma Group?
There are far too many women suffering silently in their betrayal trauma. This group will not only be a safe place for women to share and listen to each other’s pain but also learn healthy ways to cope and manage their trauma thru psychoeducation. This will be a closed weekly group with an 8 week commitment. All potential group members will need to meet with Rika individually before joining the group to ensure it is a good fit.

Understanding Trauma
Sex Addiction 101
Establishing Safety
Coping with Emotions
Effective Communication
Setting/Holding Boundaries
Rebuilding Trust and Intimacy
Healthy Sexuality
“Owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it. Embracing our vulnerabilities is risky but not nearly as dangerous as giving up on love and belonging and joy—the experiences that make us the most vulnerable. Only when we are brave enough to explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light.”
— Brene Brown
