Groups will begin in December in Buckhead or via Telehealth.
The Corporate Trauma Support Groups are for Women of Color who have experienced emotional and mental injury or trauma as a result of their workplace engagement. This group provides a safe place for Women of Color to share their experiences, support each other, as well as learn how not to internalize the messages they receive from peers and upper management regarding their value in the workplace.
This group is for you if you:
find yourself second-guessing your worth due to the culture of your work environment
spend time wordsmithing your feedback or suggestions in order to be heard
internalize the feedback, or lack of support, you receive as an indication of your worth
spend time second-guessing what you could have done differently (to be accepted, be heard, be valued, etc)
wonder if your hairstyle or attire will adversely affect your being valued, considered for promotion, etc.
tired of having to be effusively grateful for what you’ve earned
find yourself engaging in “retail therapy”, vacation therapy, emotional eating, sex, etc. to cope with the work stress only to find the issues are still there when your momentary satisfaction ends
