Group Therapy at The Red Door

Healing doesn’t have to be lonely.

A New Way to Heal

Hi, I’m Emily, founder of The Red Door Therapy & Wellness Solutions and a licensed therapist who believes that healing happens best through relationships with others. I created these groups because I’ve seen how powerful it can be when people show up as their whole selves and find they’re not alone.

You don’t have to figure it all out in your head or carry it all by yourself. Group therapy is where tender hearts, big feelings, and busy brains come together in a space that feels safe, steady, and real. Whether you’re navigating grief, anxiety, ADHD, or relationship patterns, healing in community can be a powerful turning point.

These groups aren’t about performing or pretending. They’re about coming as you are and discovering that’s more than enough.

💬 Why Group Therapy?

Sometimes, the most healing thing is to hear, “Me too.”

Group therapy provides:

  • 🔄 Real-time emotional support and feedback

  • 🧠 Skills and strategies grounded in ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy)

  • 🤝 A space to practice connection without people-pleasing

  • 🌱 Shared insight and momentum from others on a similar path

It’s not just therapy, it’s a mirror, a soft place to land, and a space where your inner experience is welcomed, not minimized.

📅 Ready to Take the First Step?

We’ll start with a free consultation call to make sure group is the right fit. No pressure, just space to ask questions, explore options, and get the support you need.

You don’t have to figure this out alone. Let’s help you find a group where you feel supported, seen, and just a little more like yourself again.

The Unfinished List

Online Group therapy for busy-brained, deep-feeling humans who’ve been holding it together for so long, they didn’t realize how heavy it’s gotten.

This group helps you shift out of shame and relate to your brain with more compassion.

The Unfinished List

You’ve got a million ideas, a hundred open tabs, literally and metaphorically, and not a lot of finished projects (or peace of mind). The world sees your drive and intellect, but you’re stuck in cycles of procrastination, shame, and burnout. You’ve tried productivity hacks, but what you need is a different way to relate to your brain, not just force it to fit into someone else’s structure.

This group offers a space to explore what it’s like to live in a high-speed, high-pressure mind, with others who get it. Through Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), we’ll practice strategies that go beyond to-do lists and instead focus on building self-compassion, clarifying what matters, and learning how to take flexible action, without burning out.

Permission to Be Uncertain

Online Group therapy that helps you unhook from obsessive thoughts, expand your tolerance for uncertainty, and feel more like you again.

This group helps you quiet the noise, reconnect with your values, and build relationships that don’t require you to shrink.

Permission to Be Uncertain

If your mind is stuck in “what if” mode, chasing certainty, replaying conversations, or performing endless mental rituals just to feel okay, you’re not alone. It’s exhausting to live in a brain that won’t settle until everything feels just right. But that search for certainty often makes things feel worse, not better.

This group creates a compassionate, judgment-free space to learn a different way of responding to obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors. Grounded in ACT, we’ll work on unhooking from those thoughts, expanding your tolerance for uncertainty, and reconnecting with a sense of purpose and peace, even when your brain is loud.

Group therapy helps you see you’re not the only one living with these intrusive fears. You’ll gain skills, perspective, and encouragement in a space where honesty and hope coexist.

Voice without Apology

You’re tired of walking on eggshells.

Online Group therapy that helps you unhook from people-pleasing, speak your truth without spiraling, and feel connected without abandoning yourself.

Online Group Therapy for Communication, Boundaries, and People Pleasing

Voice Without Apology

You rehearse every word. You over-explain, avoid conflict, or say yes when you meant no. Deep down, you want connection, but you’re stuck in patterns that leave you resentful, misunderstood, or emotionally exhausted.

This group is for people who are ready to stop shrinking in relationships. Through ACT-based tools and guided group support, you’ll learn how to name your needs, set boundaries without guilt, and stay present—even when conversations get hard.

Group therapy offers something individual work can’t: real-time connection, shared courage, and the chance to practice saying the hard things out loud in a safe, supportive space.

The Overbooked Brain Club

You Hold It All Together at School—But Inside, You’re Falling Apart.

Online Group therapy for educators with ADHD, burnout, overwhelm, and a brain that never turns ‘off.’

This group helps you unhook from burnout, quiet the shame of falling behind, and gently reconnect with your brain, your body, and your why, on your terms.

Online Group Therapy for Educators with ADHD, Burnout, and Overwhelm

The Overbooked Brain Club

You can manage 25 students before lunch, but your own calendar, laundry pile, and unread emails? Forget it. As a teacher with ADHD, you’re juggling lesson plans, school politics, and emotional labor, while internally battling shame, decision fatigue, and a brain that won't slow down.

This group is a space just for you. A place where your mess is met with compassion, not correction. Grounded in ACT, we’ll explore how to build systems that work with your brain (not against it), interrupt burnout cycles, and create a life that honors your actual energy, not just what others expect.

You’ll also engage in creative arts-based reflection to reconnect with your why, express what words can’t, and nurture the part of you that still loves to learn.

You Want Connection—But Dating Feels Like Emotional Whiplash.

Welcome to

First Date, Fifth Breakdown

Online group therapy for rejection sensitivity, overthinking, and dating anxiety.

Online Group Therapy for Rejection Sensitivity, Overthinking, and Dating Anxiety

First Date, Fifth Breakdown

You want connection, but dating feels like emotional whiplash. A delayed text, a shift in tone, or an awkward silence can send your brain into overdrive. Instead of feeling excited, you’re bracing for the moment it all falls apart.

Whether it’s the build-up to a date, the awkwardness of small talk, or the post-date spiral of overanalyzing everything you said, dating with social anxiety and rejection sensitivity is a lot. Your nervous system is doing its best to survive what’s supposed to be fun. And that’s not your fault; it’s how your brain is wired to protect you.

This group is for people trying to date with tender hearts and noisy minds. Grounded in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), we’ll explore how to unhook from the mental loops, soothe the need for approval, and shift from self-abandonment to self-trust. You’ll practice staying connected to your values, even when vulnerability feels risky or awkward.

Creative expression is woven into our process, not to distract from discomfort, but to honor the intuitive, playful parts of you that long for love, belonging, and safety.

Grief Isn’t a Problem to Solve—It’s a Tender Story to Hold (Together)

Grief isn’t always loud. It can show up in the stillness after loss, in the ache of a relationship that’s changed, or in the quiet unraveling of how things used to be. Sometimes it’s caused by death. Sometimes by a thousand tiny goodbyes. Either way, the sorrow is real, and it deserves space to breathe.

This group offers a gentle place to lay down what you’ve been carrying, whether you're grieving a loved one, the loss of a role or relationship, or the turning of a life page you didn’t choose. Through ACT-based support and creative reflection, we’ll explore how to honor what was, make space for what is, and begin to trust the unfolding of what’s next. No fixing, no pressure, just presence, softness, and the slow work of letting go.

You’ll also be invited to engage in guided creative expression to help give form to the feelings that words can’t always reach.
