Meet your group facilitator!
Michelle Reinhard, LCSW
As a former teacher, education is still very much my passion. My goal as a therapist is to provide you with the tools you need and empower you to move forward without me!
I have also discovered the amazing power of mutual aid. This is when a collective meets for a shared purpose and learns from each other. Often we learn more from others who have been through the same thing and truly understand your experience. That is why I love facilitating therapeutic groups and bringing people together for connection, support, and growth!
Therapeutic groups in Concord, NC
Do you ever feel alone in your experience? Like no one else can possibly understand what you are going through? Is it frustrating trying to explain yourself to people that just don’t get it?
Therapeutic groups offer a safe space for people with similar experiences. It’s an opportunity to build community, gain authentic support, and share your story. In addition, you have access to a licensed professional who provides direction, education, and therapeutic strategies.
All groups are inclusive and accepting of all identities, cultures, bodies, beliefs, and backgrounds. Each person meets 1:1 with Michelle prior to the group sessions to ensure appropriate fit for the benefit and safety of the whole group.

When a therapeutic group first meets, your therapist will begin with introductions, group agreements, and overview of the program. Each session provides space for the therapist to review therapeutic and education material. Most importantly, time is prioritized for participants to share their stories, provide peer support, and ask questions. Every group session will look a little different as they are tailored for the specific people in attendance.
-
I greatly value autonomy. I will never force you to do or say anything that you are not comfortable with. If you are not comfortable sharing something, you don’t have to. However, the beauty and power of therapeutic support groups is the mutual understanding and learning we gain from each other. Everyone who joins a group wants to listen, support, and learn from their peers. So, contribute what you can when you are ready!
If you have any concerns or need additional supports, we can also discuss this during our 1:1 call before the group begins.
