New City Counseling Group: Understanding Trauma

As image bearers of God, we carry within us inherent dignity, worth and value. In His incarnation, Jesus revealed to us the importance of our physical bodies. During His life on earth our Lord experienced, in His body, great joy and delight alongside deep hurt and betrayal. He modeled for us the importance of paying attention to our bodies as a form of connection with God and as a way of living as fully present humans.

In light of recent events in our community, New City Counseling will offer a group to those wishing to understand more about trauma and its effects on our bodies. During this 6 week group we will not only gain cognitive knowledge of trauma, but we will also practice ways to regulate our own bodies as they experience the very real physical effects of trauma. Two trauma informed counselors from New City Counseling will co-lead the group.

The group will meet on Tuesday evenings from 7:15-8:30PM at our Park Street office (address provided upon registration). Dates for the group are July 20 - August 24, 2021. $150 per participant. Please email Kelly Maurer (kmaurer.ncc@gmail.com) to register. Space is limited.
