Journey to Living with Courage is an 8-week group process that addresses both our daily fears of life as well as unprocessed fears that may be causing anxiety in our everyday lives. Fear is a part of everyone's story and is an inevitable part of our lives. The uncertainty of today's world can be hard to manage alone. Yet fear can be a healthy part of our full emotional life by keeping us from making bad decisions and from getting hurt. But what happens when occasional fear turns to underlying worry and anxiety, robbing us of joy and peace? This group encourages you to acknowledge, expose and explore those persistent fears and the life experiences that inform them so that you can find a sense of security, embrace your innate courage, and move forward with hope.

CEO/Executive Director/Board Comments

In 2022, we plan to begin an overall revision of our program materials, beginning with our foundational program, Journey to Freedom. Fundamentally, the concepts of the program will remain the same. However, since the first edition in 2005, we have grown and learned much more in the areas of addressing toxic shame, processing grief and loss, changing perspective, and trauma. These concepts themselves are ever evolving in the therapeutic world and we want to reflect the most current information. Also, we want to make sure the materials reflect the most inclusive approach for our participants. We are also trying a new approach this year with programming, particularly with Journey to Freedom by offering the group for specific populations such as those struggling with chronic illness, depression and anxiety, covid recovery (for example). In this way, we hope to make Journey to Freedom more accessible and approachable for those in need.
