Groups Specifically for the GLBTIQ Community

Queer Couple

This process group is for same-sex couples who are experiencing some problems in their relationship. Participants will share their experiences with other couples who will in turn provide guidance and support. Groups such as these are a great way for couples to learn from others' mistakes and great successes. We will practice using effective, tactful, validating, and honest communication.
