6 Week Women Empowerment Program
"There is no limit to what we, as women, can accomplish,” Michelle Obama. Being a woman today is not easy. Yes, we are making great strides with the opportunities we create for ourselves, but we still struggle with both current and generational trauma. This Group therapy experience is designed to help you feel empowered in the decisions you make for your life. Together, we will focus on our experiences as women and connect those experiences to our future goals.
In this six-week program, we will learn how micro-aggressions against women can manifest themselves in our daily lives, what it means to protect and cherish self-worth, working women’s struggles today, and much more.
Let’s Conquer from Within
Now you may be thinking am I the right person to join this group therapy? If you are a woman that is trying to find the power within herself, understand your boundaries, practice self-love and most importantly, connect with other women.
The answer is YES!
This group is created to help you learn how to communicate with others on your terms and prioritize your needs before others’ to ultimately serve yourself and the people you love.
The 6 Week Program
Week One: Micro-Aggressions Against Women
“We all have a voice; we just have to decide how we want to use it.”
You may be asking, what is a micro-aggression? A micro-aggression is a subtle, intentional, and often, unintentional interaction or behavior that presents a bias of some sort towards a marginalized group.
This is the first week of our journey. We will learn what these micro-aggressions can look like against women, how they can unconsciously affect us, and how to combat it in the real world. In this introductory week, we will learn about each other, share our experiences, and truly connect as women.
Week Two: Self- Love/Self-Worth
“She overcame everything that was meant to destroy her.”
Throughout our day-to-day lives, we neglect to take the time to appreciate and practice gratitude for all we have accomplished. This can diminish our self-worth and even introduce negative thoughts. My goal is to help you identify these feelings in the moment, teach powerful coping skills to reframe your mind and overall strengthen your self-image whenever these harmful feelings come up. We will identify your individual needs and how to reproduce them yourself.
Week Three: Their Experiences as Women
“Experience is the hardest kind of teacher. It gives you the test first and the lesson afterward.”
Week three is our reflective week. As a group, we will share individual and impactful experiences we’ve faced in our lives. No shame, no judgment, no pressure. Just us.
Week Four: Working Women
“The sun does not ask permission to shine, and neither do I.”
Working as a woman is a unique experience. There are many things as women we wished we knew before getting a certain job or joining the workforce. Harassment, intimidation, and an overall lack of respect from our peers can weigh heavily on us as women and ultimately affect our quality of work. We will address these challenges and discuss the changes we want to see in the workplace. Assertiveness is key to being heard in any workplace and I will teach you the tools to transform your working world.
Week Five: Open Topic (Boundaries/ Reframing Your Mindset)
“I set boundaries not to offend you, but to respect myself.”
The happiness of your life depends on the quality of your thoughts and a positive mind can accomplish anything you can imagine. We will learn to transform our negative thoughts into positive thoughts and reframe negative past experiences into positive life lessons. Moving forward, we will learn to set boundaries and prevent those negative situations from happening again.
Week Six: Last Week Wrap Up
“The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don’t have any.”
There is no limit to what we as women can accomplish. My goal is to create a group of powerful, focused, and reassured women by the end of this program. In our last session, we will discuss what we’ve learned from each other, what skills we’ve acquired and how we’ve transformed from this group as women.
Together we can learn how to build healthy boundaries, rebuild our self-love, share our experiences with other women, and empower ourselves and our decisions. Let’s create a safe space where we can learn to grow, share and communicate as women.
Each session is $70, if you’d like to use insurance for this group, please send your insurance information.
