🌕 Full Moon Women’s Circle
Moon Phase Process & Integration Group
A monthly therapeutic group space for reflection, connection, and intentional growth.
The rhythm of the moon has long been used as a symbolic framework for reflection, transition, and meaning-making. This group invites women into a supportive counselling environment where we can slow down, explore our internal experiences, and connect with ourselves and others through guided reflection.
Each gathering will include:
✨ Mindfulness and grounding practices
✨ Psychoeducation connected to monthly themes
✨ Reflective practices and journaling opportunities
✨ Optional creative meaning-making tools
✨ Facilitated group conversation and integration
This is a formal therapeutic group facilitated within an ethical counselling framework. Participants will have the opportunity to engage at their own pace, with choice around what they share and how they participate. Confidentiality, informed consent, and group agreements will be reviewed together to support a respectful and supportive space.
🌙 First Gathering: Buck Moon Reflection
📅 Wed, July 29, 2026 6-7:30pm
📍 200 - 1414, 8 St SW Calgary AB
