Groups & Classes
At Evans Counseling Services, we believe that healing takes place within the context of community and when addressing the full mind, body, and spirit. Therefore we offer both somatic healing groups and counseling groups. We are eager for you to give these groups a try! Ideal as supplements to your current work in therapy, or a stand-alone resource for your self care–we are sure there is a group for you!
