Anxiety Support Group

I enjoy coffee, in the mornings with some quiet time for reflection. I believe we grow and heal together, living in our humanity and not being reduced to numbers and dollar signs. I've learned from some of the best pioneers of peer support, from Sheri Mead and Chris Hanson of Intentional Peer Support, Mary Ellen Copeland of WRAP, Celia Brown, Darby Penney, Phil Hall, Kevin Healey, Rae Waddingham, Gabor Mate, Bill Gamble, Isaac Brown, so many others. This journey of continuous learning, healing, understanding the influence of deep wounds (some call it trauma) of past has brought me to this place of support that Hey Peers provides. Some life stuff, abandonment, adoption, physical and emotional harm, substance use and recovery, Hep C and treatment, psychiatric system, heart surgery, parenthood & more. I am incredibly thankful to have learned how to treat myself with kindness, respect and awareness of what works for me. I love the connection that peer support gives; being with others who understand helps me navigate both the heaviness and the joys of life. You are here now, in this space of support with many phenomenal certified peer facilitators, welcome!
