Journey 

 

Does the idea of participating in group therapy awaken fears of being humiliated, made fun of, or being put on the spot while uncertain of what to say?

 

If so, Journey may provide the perfect opportunity to address those fears!

 

Created to overcome the research supported paradox—that social fears are best addressed in the group format —Journey is played on an elaborate, one-of-a-kind, carved board that provides the familiar structure of a tabletop game that can offer guidance on your path.

 

Conceptualized through a vision of what group therapy could be; Journey has helpful prompts for days when you need a little help getting started and dice for when you’d like to add some chance. Utilizing the power of choice during every turn, players are welcome to share about their past, or what is currently going on as they gather and let go of words that currently or once defined them.

 

Journey is a game where real-world power is drawn from real-world experience. Simply click on the word vision above to hear the lore surrounding the game’s conception.​

 

This group runs in 15-week campaigns. Each week each client gets the opportunity to take their turn. Every in-person session is $95.​​​​​​​​​​​​

After each 45-minute group, improv experience the improv instructor leaves and a 45-minute process group led by therapist Birch Cooper, LMHC takes place.
