For the many adults providing care to a parent, either in person or long distance, existing relationship dynamics can get even more complicated. Caring for a parent might also go unseen or easily dismissed, because we expect it to look one particular way. This group is a space to process these challenges, validate your role as caregiver, and explore how to care for yourself in this life transition.
In this space we reflect on themes and challenges; offer and receive support; and take time to offer ourselves compassion. Each session offers facilitated conversation and 10-15 minutes of gentle, accessible yoga or mindfulness practice. Topics often include boundaries, decision fatigue, the role of the "sandwich generation," and processing complicated family dynamics.
This current group is open to anyone living in IL, WI, or MN who is navigating a parent or parental figure's chronic or terminal illness, physical and/or mental. This group is an ongoing group that asks for an initial 8 session commitment, with the opportunity to continue longer.
Some private insurance plans are accepted; out of pocket cost per session is $35, and limited sliding scale spots are available. Each participant is asked to complete an individaul intake session before joining the group
