Classes, Groups, Teleclasses, Workshops & Retreats
By Personal Coaching & Psychotherapy Associates for Women
We are pleased to offer our services both in person in our comfortable offices and on-line . While we prefer face to face encounters, today’s world sometimes dictates otherwise. We give you our professional assurance that, whether you visit us face-to-face or by email or chat, we are committed to abiding by the highest ethical standards dictated by our profession and to providing a truly quality, value-rich service.
Free Initial Appointment
Because we know that personal coaching, counseling or psychotherapy is a serious commitment, we are happy to meet with you at no cost to further explain our approach and to learn about your reasons for coming to us. This enables you to talk with us one-on-one to ask any questions you may have and for you to see if you are comfortable with us.
This initial meeting will allow us to see if we are comfortable enough with each other to go further. It is not personal coaching or therapy and we will not go into significant details about your goals or your issues. However, this is an excellent option for women, searching for a therapist or a coach, to talk and get to know us a little before committing to a paid session. It also works well for women considering personal coaching, counseling or psychotherapy for the first time.
To inquire about coaching or psychotherapy and to schedule a free initial appointment, contact us at 678-230-8127..
Mindfulness Training and Weekly Dharma Talks
Wednesday Evenings
6:30–7:30 PM
Stillness is the first step to clarity and to connecting with our personal power. This still place is the beginning of real, long lasting change as opposed to “quick fix” hype. Discussion will include the power of stillness from a medical perspective (lowering of blood pressure and alleviation of stress); current research and it's implications relative to the treatment of depression, anxiety, pain management and more. We will explore the works of Jon Kabat-Zinn,Center for Mindfulness in Medicine, Health Care, and Society (CFM) at the University of Massachusetts; Charles Raison and Tenzin Negi and Susan Bauer-Wu from Emory University as well as many more. The universal practice of meditation has it's sacred place within all the major religions of the world; within Christianity (“Be Still and Know”) as well as in Native American practices and in the ancient Eastern philosophies and Buddhism as brought to the Western mainstream through the works of Deepak Chopra and Thich Nhat Hahn among others. Different meditation practices will be explored and classes will include the use of audio recordings of Buddhist and Native American chants and songs as well as guided imagery and visualization. A list of suggested readings will be available. $25.00 per session. Mastercard and Visa accepted. Reservations required. 678-230-8127.

Mindfulness-Focused Intentional Living Group Tuesday Evenings 6:15–7:45 PM 
A GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR WOMEN STRUGGLING WITH DETERMINING THEIR NEXT BEST STEP
The focus of this process group is living intentionally and applying the principles of mindfulness to the way we conduct our lives. The group is currently made up of five well-functioning women between the ages of "40-something" and "Is that Relevant?" Some of the common threads in this group are clarifying values, determining how they're manifesting or not in our lives; relationships; difficulty with defining our dreams or moving from where we are to where we want to be; skill development and group support. We meet for an hour and a half and the cost is $45.00. Many insurance plans, Mastercard and Visa are accepted. An individual consultation is required to determine together whether this would be a good fit for each potential group member and for the group as a whole.
