- I want to communicate better with people

- I'm lonely; there is no one in my life.
- I want to be able to assert myself, to say "No" and to not feel overpowered by others.
- I want to be able to express my anger in healthy ways.
- I want to be able to get closer w/others and to make friends.
- I want to be able to trust others. I've been hurt often in my life.
- I want some feedback about how I come across to others.
- I would like to learn new ways to interact w/the people in my life.
We all have patterns of how we relate to others; some patterns work well for us and some do not. This group will provide you with a safe and confidential space to learn about how you interact with others and to try new ways of behaving.
