Center on Halsted provides a variety of group services, including support groups, therapy and wellness based workshops. These services are meant to connect and unite LGBTQ, queer and questioning individuals, families and allies who share similar issues and struggles. Participation is fee based and space in each group is limited.
Group Therapy and Support groups at Center on Halsted are one component of our Mental Health Services. We currently offer on-going and time limited therapy groups for individuals working on and making changes in their lives. Additionally, we offer time limited support groups for individuals seeking support.
To participate in any of our groups, interested parties will need to complete a brief registration with a group facilitator. In this registration process, you will be asked to complete a brief phone screening for support groups or a 20-30 min in-person registration interview for therapy groups. Support groups & workshops have a $10 fee per session and Therapy groups have a $20 fee per session. Fee negotiation may be available for those who cannot afford the full fee.
