GROUPS

Navigating Family and Prioritizing Self - Group Therapy for Asian Americans

In many Asian families, cultural expectations can create an immense pressure to conform to traditional norms and values, sometimes at the expense of individual emotional health and identity. Balancing the demands of family with personal needs and aspirations can lead to feelings of guilt, shame, and internal conflict.

That’s exactly what this group is for:

This group is designed to support Asian Americans as they navigate the intricate dynamics between their cultural heritage and personal identity. It offers a compassionate space to discuss the familial expectations we must reconcile, the personal changes we undergo, and the impact of establishing both healthy and necessary boundaries.
