In This Together: Support for families navigating mental illness and addiction.

Finding steadiness when someone you love is struggling

When someone we care about lives with mental illness or addiction, our world can begin to revolve around their pain. We worry, we adapt, we give—and over time, we can lose touch with our own needs and identity.

In This Together offers a place to pause, reflect, and reconnect—with yourself and with others who understand.

This 4-part workshop series blends gentle education, guided self-reflection, and meaningful connection to help you find balance, boundaries, and renewed strength.

You can love your family and take care of yourself. We’ll help you do both

Connection & Understanding

A safe, compassionate space to share your experience with others who truly get it. You’ll break free from isolation and feel heard, supported, and understood.

Tools for Resilience

Learn practical strategies to set boundaries, manage stress, and prioritize your own emotional, physical, and spiritual health—without guilt.

Reclaiming Yourself

Rediscover who you are beyond your loved one’s struggle. Cultivate balance, clarity, and renewed purpose as you move toward a more grounded, meaningful life.

Each 90-minute session includes:

  • Guided reflection and discussion on a key theme (boundaries, compassion fatigue, identity, and resilience)

  • Educational insights rooted in trauma-informed and evidence-based care

  • Simple self-care and grounding practices to support emotional regulation

  • Optional take-home exercises for continued reflection between sessions

This series is open to partners, parents, siblings, friends, or caregivers supporting someone living with a mental health or substance use challenge.
No previous experience or participation in therapy is required—just a willingness to show up for yourself.

What To Expect:

Who is this for:

  • You often feel responsible for keeping the peace or holding things together

You don’t have to do this alone. There’s a community of people walking this same path—ready to listen, share, and heal together.
