GROUP WORK:

CREATIVE VOICE

The Creative Minds group is a processing group that meets once a week for nine weeks, online.

This group is designed for artists looking for accountability on a certain project, or anyone looking for more authentic self-expression in the workplace or relationships. We focus on developing the creative voice - and on forging less apology and more spontaneity.

In the group, we will use “parts work” to look at the various voices or selves inside, appreciating our natural contradictions. How does the “artist” in you relate to the “pleaser,” for instance? How does the “eccentric” relate to the “practical self”? Parts work encourages articulation and acceptance of our various selves.

Goals of the group:

  1. Familiarity with parts work, including increased freedom between various internal voices.

  2. Accountability and support for creative projects.

  3. Education about and work with the Enneagram.

  4. Understanding of “shadow,” in the Jungian tradition, and some sense of where our own shadow lies.

  5. A closer look at who we are and how we act in groups.

Groups run for 9 sessions of 80 minutes each and cost $95/session. Your insurance can potentially cover group. We take Aetna, Cigna, BCBS, LaCare, Kaiser, MHN, United, Beacon, Anthem, Molina, Presbyterian, Medicaid (NM), HealthNet, Magellan, Medicare. The group work includes a handful of 1-on 1 sessions during the course of the group.
