Hi All,
I am excited to let you know about my new upcoming support group. This is a support group for new mothers who are adjusting to motherhood, are French speakers and would like to build a supportive community in their first language.
The group will meet every other week on Monday at noon. I will start online via Zoom and will eventually evolve to in-person if there are enough interested participants.
This is a great opportunity for your clients who struggles to express their emotions in English.
Please let your clients know about this group. For more information and registration: https://www.familytreewellness.org/groups or contact us at hello@familytreewellness.org or give us a call (408)345-5572
Thank you
My name is Estelle, and I am an AMFT working at Family Tree Wellness. I wanted to let you know that my Childbirth complications support group will resume January 17 at 6:30 pm.
This group is open to parents who experienced traumatic or complicated childbirth, or who had their baby in the NICU. The group meets online via Zoom every other weeks. Fees are $10 per meeting.
The Evolve program is a 16-week CBT-based teen depression group designed to treat mild to moderate depression. Teens from 13-19 are welcome to join this group who are struggling with depression. Groups are designed by age (13-15 & 16-19).

Please join us tomorrow evening (Wednesday, 11/30 @ 6pm) for a very special community education event, as we welcome a long trusted colleague and respected Special Education attorney, David Tollner, to Lydian Academy to do a presentation for all parents and families on the ins and outs of the IEP process.
David brings to his practice his trial experience as a litigator, unique knowledge of the special education process and services, and a formidable passion for supporting children with disabilities. David has served as Executive Director of Pacific Autism Center for Education (PACE) and Rebekah Children's Services, and subsequently opened Tollner Law Offices in 2007. He has built his firm into one of the largest disability law firms in Northern California, serving children and adults with special needs.

More about David Tollner:
David brings a unique and valuable background to his special education law practice. After thirteen years as a litigator of general business cases that included many trials, arbitrations and mediations, David took on the challenge of serving as Executive Director of Pacific Autism Center for Education (PACE), a large special education school and residential program for children and adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in Sunnyvale, California. It was at PACE that David learned the language and process of special education, specifically as it relates to autism and its many treatment methodologies. After PACE, David became the Executive Director of Rebekah Children’s Services (RCS) in Gilroy. RCS treats children with mental health disorders, and its special education school for children with emotional disturbance (ED) was among the best in the valley.
David is also familiar with a host of non-public schools and other specialized programs and therapists in Northern California. This knowledge has been central to his success as a special education attorney, as it allows him to assist his clients in answering what is often the most difficult question: “What does my child need?”
David will help you find the right private school for your child (at district expense where appropriate) or assist you in making the district’s school program the best it can be for your child.

Dear Mental Health Professional,
You are invited to the upcoming Symposium on Gender Affirming Mental Health Care at Santa Clara University on Friday, November 4th, 2022. This symposium is intended to offer mental health providers in our community valuable information to learn and deepen your understanding of clients who are questioning their gender or who have already transitioned away from the sex they were assigned at birth. As you navigate this complex topic as clinicians, here at the SCU, we want to create access to quality information and education in this area for the professional mental health community.
The content of the Symposium will range from basic information about Gender Affirming Care to more complex topics such as the possible medical implications and working with family members of gender expansive people.
This event is free to attend and there are up to 5.5 Continuing Education hours (CEs) available to licensed clinicians. See the flier attached for more information.
This event will be held in person and will be run in accordance with Santa Clara University's Covid-19 protocols for events on campus.
Registration is open now!
If you know of any individuals or organizations who would benefit from participating in this symposium, please feel free to forward this email or the attached flier. Thank you again for your commitment in supporting affirming mental health in our diverse communities.
Sincerely,
Janet Sims, MA, LMFT

Group Therapy for Adults 20s-30s
High-functioning group for clients with a capacity for self-reflection dealing with depression, anxiety, or relationship issues. Virtual. Contact: Dan Zuiches, MBA, Ph.D., CGP (PSY28645) dan@zuiches.com. For more information: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/groups/20s-and-30s-interpersonal-process-group-san-francisco-ca/183800
Being a gender expansive child of any age brings with it a wide range of unique challenges. Many do not know any other kids who don’t fit the gender norms, and this can be a lonely, isolating, and confusing experience.
These groups are designed to provide a safe, supportive, fun place for kids to gather with other children who don’t fit our conventional gender definitions. This gives them greater freedom to explore and celebrate their own gender identity.
Activities are designed to help young children learn more about their relationship with themselves, their own bodies, and with the world around them. Age-appropriate expressive arts, games, books, and discussions will be utilized to facilitate self-understanding, emotional regulation, and social skills development.
