I hope to contribute a listening ear and validation to my peers. Sharewell taught me that I’m not alone even though almost every person in my personal circle doesn’t know much about mental health or how to provide emotional support. I haven’t been listened to my entire life and that has caused me to lose my sense of self and trust in myself. I hope to feel seen, heard, and understood after Sharewell sessions and usually I do!

I was referred to Sharewell by my group therapist when I was part of an IOP program due to postpartum depression. Sharewell was instrumental to my healing when I left my husband and had to process what he had done to me. When I first left I’d do three groups a day just to stay afloat. I’m a mom of a very active toddler so I don’t have time for groups as much anymore but try to make it as much as I can.
