We’re incredibly grateful to JE Dunn Construction for supporting advanced training for our therapists in EMDR therapy. 💙
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a specialized psychotherapy proven to help individuals process traumatic memories and reduce distress, especially for those living with PTSD. Because of JE Dunn’s generosity, our team is better equipped to provide trauma‑informed care and meaningful healing for the people we serve.
Thank you for investing in mental health and making a lasting impact in our community.

In order to attend divorce support groups, children must be aware that parents are divorcing. Co-parents who were never married and going through a custody change may also attend. Divorce support groups are for ages 3 to adult. Family members are divided into age appropriate groups including children groups, teen groups, young adult and adult groups. All family members may attend or a single adult; minors cannot attend groups without a guardian present. Both parents are welcome to attend, we have at least two adult groups, therefore each co-parent may attend their own group. Consistent attendance is most beneficial for the family. Register for a divorce support group online at: https://www.calmwaters.org/calm-waters-divorce-support-group-registration-form/ For all groups, once your online registration form has been received, a Calm Waters’ staff member will contact you to schedule an intake appointment prior to the beginning of groups. The intake appointment determines group readiness and is required for all who want to attend a Calm Waters group. PARENTING THROUGH DIVORCE SEMINARS: The Calm Waters Parenting Through Divorce (PTD) seminar is offered three times each month and is a court-approved seminar. A $50 fee is required.
