Don't do it alone.
Join a therapist-led support group.
Only a few spots remaining.
Emotional support, practical strategies, and connection with people who get it.
"I feel like whatever I do is never enough."
"I felt relief when she had to go to rehab because I had some time off."
"I think more about Dad than about my own husband and kids."
"I had to quit working. Put off my own health issues. Give up seeing my grandchildren."
"My sister says she's 'just not cut out to be a caregiver.'"
"I feel like shouting at my siblings; 'This isn't fair. She's your mom too."
"I miss feeling like a daughter."
"I had to tell him he couldn't drive anymore. That's when it hit me—I'm the parent now."
The exhaustion deepens.
44% of caregivers are providing high-intensity care — and 30% have been doing it for 5+ years. (AARP, 2025)
Your health suffers.
1 in 5 caregivers report their health has declined because of caregiving. (AARP, 2025)
The love can turn to resentment.
Our online therapy group, "Caring for Caregivers," is for adults caring for aging parents—while trying to hold onto their own lives.
Free support groups can help—but without a therapist, conversations spiral into venting, or worse, bad advice from people who mean well but aren't trained.
Our sessions are guided by a licensed therapist who ensures every meeting is:
This isn't just venting (though you can do that too). It's about learning practical tools, processing difficult emotions, and building meaningful connections with people who truly understand.

Weeks 1–2: Get comfortable. Weeks 3–4: The real work begins. Weeks 5–6: Transformation takes hold.
After 6 weeks, you can continue if you're finding it helpful.
Both are valuable.
Individual therapy: Deep personal work, but double or triple the price.
This group: Professional guidance plus peer support from people in your exact situation—at $60-75/session.
Some people do both.
Answer a few quick questions and Leslie will follow up personally to make sure the group is right for you.

No pressure. No obligation. Spots are limited to 6–8 people.
