Mental Fitness is a dedicated group led by Arielle Hobbs, LMHC with support from Pat Taaffe as the volunteer firefighter advocate. This group is designed to address the distinct mental health challenges faced in the fire service. Meeting twice a month, we focus on strengthening psychological resilience, reducing stigma around mental health, and equipping firefighters with practical tools to thrive on and off duty.

12-HOUR PRIVATE COUPLES RETREAT (Upon Request)

Theme:: 7 Principles for Making Marriage Work 
​Description: This class is intended for couples whose spouses are unwilling to do marriage counseling but would be willing to attend a relationship enhancement class. If a couples relationship is strong, this class will provide them with tools and insights to make their relationship even better. If a couple has a distressed relationship, this class can provide a road map for repair. 

GROUP THERAPY can be a powerful tool for growth and change. 5-10 individuals meet to share struggles and concerns with the facilitation of 1-2 trained counselors. The power of GROUP THERAPY lies in the unique opportunity to receive multiple perspectives, support, encouragement and feedback from other individuals in a safe and confidential environment. These interpersonal interactions provide group members opportunities to deepen their level of self-awareness and to learn how they relate to others.

​If you say can YES to any of these questions, GROUP THERAPY might be a great place for you;

• Do you ever struggle with making sense of what is going on inside?
• Do you ever feel like a deer in headlights when you experience conflict?​
• Is anger disrupting a relationship at home or at work?
• Do arguments escalate into yelling matches?
• In conflict, do you ever resort to name calling?
• Do others experience you as "controlling"?
• Are you currently separated from your spouse?
• Do you struggle to regulate your emotional life?
• Do others experience you as emotionally unaware?
