This psychotherapy group is to provide a safe and nurturing environment to explore issues connected to the emotional, mental, spiritual and physical impact of coping with life by using disordered eating behaviors. We identify other more healthy coping methods and work on developing skills that enhance a deeper and more authentic connection to ourselves as well as to others. The group process helps to decrease isolation and encourages openness about disordered eating and the disease of addiction. The group is very hopeful, lively and welcoming.

If you are interested in participating, please place your stamps in the FOOD FOR STAMPS box in the Post Office (south counter) or send to the Chaplain’s assistant: Cheryl Fleener-Seymour, 1233 Park Street. We ask that you do not pull stamps off envelopes, but rather cut or tear around the stamps without damaging perforations. Thank you for your continued support.
