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 (groups that engage the body through movement, art, music) and counseling groups (groups led by our counselors). 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!
If groups aren’t your thing or you would prefer to try something one-on-one, we would be happy to connect individually with you. Learn more about our somatic practitioners and what they offer.
