Groups
Group offers a unique opportunity to engage in thoughtful discussions and personal exploration over six weeks. This is more than a book club like gathering - it’s a journey to your soul (and there’s no reading). Together, we will dive into questions about who we are, why we’re here, and what we want to do with our time on Earth. Each session has been carefully curated and will have expert facilitation, allowing participants to share openly and learn from one another.
Sharing experiences in a supportive environment can be incredibly validating and healing. If you’ve ever been in a really good class or an amazing training that shifted the way you see the world, this will be like that.
Groups help us feel not so alone in the world, and I think that's the main point of therapy. I know the idea really freaks some people out, but in all my years I've only received postive feedback from group participants.
It takes a bit of bravery to join a group, but they are some of the most incredible spaces that I've ever had the honor to be a part of. And so, I keep creating the space and luckily, people keep being brave enough to show up.

If you have a type of group you would be interested in, feel free to reach out in the comment form below.
Once enough people express interest in a group through the form at the bottom of the page, fae will send out a link where all potential participants can express their availability. The time that works for the most people wins!
Groups are $150 per session. Participants are expected to attend all 6 sessions.
Group therapy has been covered by FSBP at 70% (after you've met your deductible). Be sure to double check your coverage just in case.
The group will meet online in a HIPAA compliant platform, making it easy & secure for you to participate from wherever you are.
All discussions within the group will remain confidential with dr. fae and notes will be thematic in nature without naming specific participants or their stories.
Participants will be asked to maintain the confidentiality of all other members. The strict confidentiality that comes with individual therapy cannot be legally guaranteed in the group space, but generally members are respectful of this request. Often material shared in group therapy is less sensitive than that shared in long term individual therapy.
The list of potential participants will be shared with the potential group before beginning. If there is anyone on the list that feels too close in your professional/personal circle you can opt out of the group - so there will be no surprises in the first session.
Rest assured, your medical and security clearances will not be impacted by your participation in this group. This is a supportive environment where you can explore your thoughts and feelings without fear of repercussions from State Department. You can read more about the lack of impact seeking mental health care has on clearances in this article.

The other groups will decide their own topics. dr. fae will assist in bringing in relevant themes, but the priority is having a safer space to share your struggles and to get feedback from others.
