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.

Women’s Mental Health Group: The Space You’ve Been Needing

You’ve been carrying it all, managing work demands, keeping the household running, remembering every little thing no one else notices, absorbing the weight of current events, and trying to hold it together when your mind and body feel out of sync. On the outside, you’re capable, composed, and dependable. Inside, you’re running on empty.

This group is the space you’ve been needing, a place where you don’t have to explain why you’re tired, why your brain won’t turn off, or why the smallest request can feel like too much. Here, you’ll connect with other women who carry their own invisible load and know exactly what it’s like to keep going when you’re running on fumes. Together, we’ll create a space that feels lighter just by being in it, where understanding runs deep, validation comes easily, and you can finally explore how to navigate life’s pressures with more compassion, flexibility, and steadiness.

Through the lens of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), we’ll focus on more than just “managing” stress; we’ll work on building the skills to respond to pressure without losing yourself in it. You’ll find room to rest without guilt, set boundaries without second-guessing, and reconnect with the parts of yourself that have been buried under responsibility.

Because it’s not about doing more, it’s about finally having space to breathe and to connect with other women who get it. When you’re surrounded by people who understand the invisible weight you’ve been carrying, you start to feel less alone, more grounded, and more able to show up for yourself.

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.

Online Group Therapy for OCD, Anxiety Loops, and Perfectionistic Overthinking

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.

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.

You’re capable in so many areas of life, but this still feels complicated…

Welcome to

Reframe

Online group therapy for changing your relationship with food, movement, and your body.

Online Group Therapy for Breaking Cycles of Overthinking and Self-Criticism Around Food, Movement, and your Body

Reframe

Reframe is for self-aware, high-achieving women with busy, analytical minds who are tired of tying their worth to food, movement, or their bodies.

Together, we’ll explore how to:

  • Unhook from the overthinking loops that keep you stuck

  • Loosen the grip of self-criticism without swinging into avoidance

  • Separate your worth from your eating, movement, or body size

  • Build steadiness in moments that normally trigger shame or correction

  • Practice choice rooted in values instead of fear

Grounded in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), this group offers more than insight. It offers space…space to slow down, notice what’s really happening, and respond differently.

You won’t be asked to perform, prove, restrict, justify, or explain.

Instead, you’ll be alongside other women who understand the quiet pressure and who are ready to move from self-monitoring and second-guessing toward steadiness, clarity, and self-trust.

Led by Emily MacNiven, LPC

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.

You hold so much together—but when life feels heavy, it’s hard to actually live what you believe…

Welcome to

Anchored

Online group therapy for breaking cycles of overthinking and self-criticism while learning to experience your faith in real life.

Online group therapy for breaking cycles of overthinking and self-criticism while learning to apply your faith in real life

Anchored

Anchored is a process-based therapy group for women who want to learn how to stay steady, respond with intention, and experience their faith in the middle of real life, not just in theory.

Together, we’ll explore how to:

  • Step back from overthinking without trying to control every thought

  • Stay present with difficult emotions without shutting down or being overtaken by them

  • Respond to yourself with grace instead of defaulting to self-criticism

  • Extend self-compassion to yourself in moments where you feel like you’re falling short

  • Stay grounded in your relationship with God when life feels uncertain or overwhelming

  • Take small, meaningful steps forward that reflect your values and purpose.

Grounded in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and shaped by a relational, experiential Christian faith, this group teaches you to work with your thoughts and emotions in ways that are both psychologically effective and spiritually aligned.

You won’t be asked to have stronger faith, get your emotions under control, or have it all together.

Instead, you’ll learn how to:

  • Stay anchored when your thoughts start to spiral

  • Meet yourself with grace instead of constant evaluation

  • Move forward with intention, even when things feel uncertain

  • Experience your faith as something that steadies you, not something you have to live up to

You’ll be alongside other women who are:

  • Carrying a lot

  • Thinking deeply

  • Wanting to live with intention

  • and ready for a way forward that feels both practical and rooted in what they believe

This isn’t about becoming unshakable. It’s about learning how to stay anchored with grace and through a process that actually works in real life.
