Playful Process
Wednesdays 5:30pm - 7:10pm
(No Current Openings)
Would you like to...
Feel more connected to yourself and others?
Gain insight into how others experience you?
Practice new ways of being in authentic relationship?
Give and receive support?
Each session of this ongoing process group begins with a brief guided playful somatic exercise. This body-based experience is intended to help participants connect with themselves and each other more deeply during the process group. This group is great for alumnae of Living Improv groups who want to explore the process part in more depth, or for anyone interested in group therapy.
Space is very limited. Please contact us if you are interested in this group, or sign up here for a free 20 minute consultation to find out more.
This is an ongoing group that asks for an initial 3 month commitment.

Forging Connections - Mixed Gender Process Groups
4 Groups (virtual and in-person):
Wednesdays 840-10am
Wednesdays 4:15pm - 5:45pm
Tuesdays 5:00pm - 6:20pm
Thursdays 9-10:20am
These ongoing groups incorporate the principles of improv into a talk therapy group format. Over time, group members learn they can be more fully themselves with others and gain confidence and capacity for more satisfying connections. Process groups give us an opportunity to understand our patterns in relationship and receive valuable feedback. Additionally, hearing from others who have dealt with similar issues can help us understand our own predicaments; and having an opportunity to tell our stories can empower us to find our voice.
These groups are facilitated by Ali Kimmell, LCSW, CGP. Please see Ali's updated group therapy website to read more about these groups and inquire about current openings.
