Relationship Recovery Process Six-Month Groups

Tired of struggling with people-pleasing, perfectionism, and unhealthy relationship patterns that just keep repeating? Do you have difficulty setting boundaries and have a critical, mean, self-doubting voice in your head? Do you know that a lot of it has to do with your childhood, but feel like you’re stuck repeating history?

RRP groups are for adults who want to start unpacking the specific and debilitating effects that attachment-based trauma and relational wounding from childhood have on their current lives and relationships. Groups explore childhood trauma associated with abuse, neglect, emotionally immature parents, etc. in a supportive environment so that they can begin to understand their story, know the effects it has in the present, and move forward towards better strategies in the future.

As children, we learn coping patterns that keep us safe that can hold us back as adults. Through sharing, guided reflection, and curriculum, the group will explore how early childhood experiences show up as limiting thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors in adulthood. With more information, and validation from others who have been in similar situations, you learn that new choices are possible and that you are not destined to repeat a toxic history.

As someone who has walked this road, and gone through the six-month group as a layperson and then learned to facilitate these groups as a clinician, I am so excited to bring this modality to you.

If you are ready to move towards a more emotionally healthy, confident and authentic self, please fill out an application for a group.

RRP stands for Relationship Recovery Process. This method explores how our childhood experiences shaped our relational patterns with others and our concept of ourselves. .Developed by Amanda Curtin LICSW and popularized by Patrick Teahan, LICSW, RRP utilizes a taught curriculum and group process. I have been trained by Marissa Boyce, who was trained by Patrick Teahan, and developed a therapy training curriculum alongside him..

“Through inner child work, reparenting ourselves and intimacy work, we become curious about the younger parts of ourselves and the strategies they developed to navigate the environments we grew up in.”—Marissa Boyce, Center for Childhood Recovery
