I’m so excited to announce I am completing EMDR training and am so expectant for the work that will be available and done with my clients 🍃

Stay tuned - I will be talking about this more over the coming weeks!

Registration is open for the next Confessional Community group therapy cohort!

🍃 This will be a 12-week group beginning June 4
🍃 The group will meet weekly on Wednesdays from 11:30am-1pm at The Dwelling Place office
🍃 Cost: $90/session

I’m very excited to run a summer group for the first time! I’ve heard from several teachers that have wanted to participate in group but haven’t been able to due to the timing. So, if you’re a teacher looking for some self-care, healing, connection, and growth, this is for you!

This is also for YOU, even if you aren’t a teacher 🫶🏼

More info and registration can be found at my website www.thedwellingplacecw.com

Look at this amazing new group meeting space! 👀 😍 I cannot wait to bear witness to the beautiful work that will occur here!

The painting on the wall is titled “Through It All” - and I wonder, what emerges as you consider that?

If you’re interested in joining a confessional community or support group, reach out!

How many therapists can fit in an elevator? We gave it a good try 🤣

I’m just back from DC kicking off the first ever Confessional Community Group Therapy training program for clinicians. It has been an absolute joy to work alongside this crew to make it happen! My heart and soul believe in this model!

I will be running a group through my practice beginning in January - space is limited! If you’re interested in joining or learning more, check out my website.

Have you encountered the work of and felt curious about the Confessional Community model of group therapy?

I have had the privilege to work with Curt and the AMAZING team at New Story Behavioral health to lead intensives over the past few years and now, the new training program for clinicians!

I am excited to bring this model to Grand Rapids once again! For more information or to get registered, visit the link in my bio or reach out.

Sitting in the quiet between sessions, I found myself present with the falling snow and God’s grace - smack dab in the path of oncoming beauty.

Confessional community kicks off at the end of this month and there are still spots available. In this space, you too can find yourself in the path of oncoming beauty. DM or email me for more information. I hope you’ll join us.

Confessional community is a 12 week group therapy option for anyone interested in eradicating shame, becoming their truest self, and finding healing at the intersection of spiritual formation and interpersonal neurobiology.

I have had the opportunity over the past two years to train with and work for Dr. Curt Thompson and the team in Washington DC. My work with them has been in leading Confessional Communities in the therapeutic setting, most recently leading an intensive in DC as part of their practice.

Confessional Communities are group therapy and I find this type of therapeutic work advantageous to individual therapy for most people. What makes these groups different from others is they are not support groups and they are not topical groups (say, for depression), they are process groups which focus on the principles of interpersonal neurobiology and Christian spiritual formation. In these groups you will find healing as you learn to tell your story more truly and learn to be fully seen and known in community. To learn more about Dr. Thompson, his practice, and Confessional Communities you can visit https://www.newstorybehavioralhealth.com/ or listen to season 7 of this podcast: https://www.beingknownpodcast.com/

I plan to offer the first group beginning in January and here are the details:

Time: 12 week group meeting on Monday evenings beginning January 29th from 7-9pm
Cost: $900 ($75/session, a savings of $45/session compared to individual work)
Location: The Dwelling Place office in Byron Center

To learn more or sign up, simply email annejansencounseling@gmail.com Additionally, if there are others you know of that may be interested, feel free to pass this along.

I'm excited for what's to come!

Words fail me this morning. I just feel grief in my chest - deep and heavy.

I maintain a few pro bono spots open in my schedule for clients in need and for tragedy like this. If you know of a student or staff that would need or desire to meet with a counselor, I am willing. In-person or virtual - no cost. Contact me at annejansencounseling@gmail.com
