Exciting Changes to Group Therapy: Introducing Haven Family Nights

In a heartfelt announcement, Haven Professional Counseling is set to embark on a transformative journey, beginning October 2, 2025. The organization is evolving its group therapy offerings, aiming to better serve families while nurturing a profound sense of community and healing.

What’s New?

As part of this new chapter, Haven will introduce several exciting changes that promise to enhance the therapy experience for families:

• Monthly Family Group Sessions: Group therapy will now convene once a month, specifically on the first Thursday of each month, from 6:00 to 8:00 pm. This regularity aims to provide a consistent space for families to come together.

• Family Counseling Interventions: Under the guidance of Lisa Shaw and Jen Thumm, these sessions will incorporate family counseling interventions. Families will join their children, fostering a more inclusive and supportive atmosphere for everyone involved.

• Parent and Guardian Participation: In a significant shift, parents and guardians are invited to attend family counseling interventions alongside their children, encouraging active involvement and shared experiences during group activities.

• Community-Building Activities: Families will engage in various activities organized by the dedicated Haven Family Night Host Team, designed to strengthen connections and promote collaboration.

• 

Benefits for Families

The introduction of Haven Family Nights comes with numerous benefits for participating families:

• Strengthens family bonds through shared activities, creating lasting memories.

• Provides a supportive environment where parents and children can thrive together.

• Connects families who are experiencing similar challenges, fostering understanding and camaraderie.

• Creates enjoyable spaces for children to form friendships and build relationships.
