Helper/Caregiver Support and Process Group

Who are the helpers?

Helpers are individuals who provide assistance to others. They can be professionals such as therapists, doctors, nurses, social workers, and teachers. They can also be caregivers like mothers, those who take care of family members such as an elderly parent, an ill child, or a spouse with addiction.

This group offers a platform to explore helpers’ experiences through a Jungian perspective. The group is semi-curated, with each meeting comprising a learning session where the facilitator presents an aspect of the helper’s role from the Jungian perspective, followed by a processing or sharing session where members can reflect on and share their experiences.

What will this group help you achieve?

The purpose of meetings is to encourage helpers to:

Adopt a new perspective (Jungian) on their helper role

Reflect upon the challenges of caring for someone

Explore their unconscious dynamics and patterns related to their helper role

Reflect upon the feelings of guilt, fear, and resentment

Become conscious of the impact of their helper role outside of their profession (or their caring role for a family member)

Share and listen to others’ difficult experiences in a safe environment

Recognize and fulfill their own needs

Discover their own self-care practices

Is this group for you?

This processing group is ideal if:

You would like to explore issues related to your helper role with the use of Jungian concepts
You need a safe space to share and explore your helper-role-related conflicts
You suffer from your helper role overruling your life – such as irreciprocal relationships and isolation
You have difficulty focusing on your needs and often feel exhausted or depleted – you are on the verge of burnout, or you had it in the past
You are experiencing difficult relationship dynamics with the person you care for
You often feel guilty when you cannot help or when you need to say "no"
You neglect yourself or your social, and family life
