Strong Roots, Secure Self Group
An 8-Week Reparenting & Secure Attachment Therapy Group
led by Samentha Sakry, MSW, LICSW
Many adults find themselves feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or overly self-critical despite growing up in homes where their basic needs were met. You may struggle with anxiety, emotional regulation, procrastination, people-pleasing, perfectionism, or feeling like you're never "good enough." These patterns often develop from subtle emotional experiences—not just major trauma.
Strong Roots, Secure Self is an attachment-focused psychoeducational therapy group designed to help adults understand how childhood emotional neglect, micro-traumas, and early relationships continue to shape their emotional well-being today. Rather than focusing on blame, this group helps participants understand how unmet emotional needs influence the nervous system, self-worth, and relationships—and how healing is possible.
Through education, discussion, guided exercises, journaling, and experiential activities, participants will learn how to build a compassionate "Inner Parent" capable of providing the safety, validation, guidance, and support they may not have consistently received growing up.
Throughout the group, participants will:
-
Understand how attachment, childhood emotional neglect, and micro-traumas influence adult emotions and relationships.
-
Learn the principles of secure attachment and "good enough" parenting.
-
Develop practical reparenting skills to reduce shame and self-criticism.
-
Improve emotional regulation and executive functioning by creating greater internal safety.
-
Build healthier relationships with themselves and others through increased self-compassion and resilience.
This group is ideal for adults who have experienced childhood trauma, emotional neglect, critical or inconsistent caregiving, or who simply feel they are carrying emotional burdens that no longer serve them. Whether your experiences were obvious or subtle, healing begins by understanding your story with compassion and learning the skills needed to become the safe, supportive adult you deserved all along.
Strong Roots, Secure Self is more than a therapy group—it's an opportunity to build the secure foundation needed for lasting emotional growth, healthier relationships, and a more connected, fulfilling life.
