If you’re a guy in Nashville looking for support practicing vulnerability, seeking connection, and exploring your emotional world (you know, the stuff you’ve probably been taught not to do), Tearing Down The Walls is the group for you!⁣
⁠⁣
Maybe you’ve been trying to find space to practice vulnerability & connection for a while, or maybe you’ve had no idea where to start at all - Either way, this group is for you.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
We explore topics like masculinity (toxic & otherwise), relationships & connections, anxiety, self-esteem, and more while giving each group member time and space to share and connect with one another on life and their emotional world.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
This group is facilitated by Sam DiMartino, one of our resident softboys™ who knows defining masculinity (and yourself) is personal and practicing vulnerability can be tough but having the right space to do so can make all the difference.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
WHO: Adults (18+) male-identifying, nonbinary, transmasculine⁠⁣
WHEN: Cohort A: 2nd & 4th Monday of each month, 5:30-6:45 pm, Cohort B: 1st & 3rd Sunday of the month, 3:30-4:45pm⁣
WHERE: In person at our office in West Nashville⁠⁣

Join us on Saturday, January 17th, 2026 from 9:30am-11am for our next low-cost ($10) Guided Together meetup! 🥳⁠⁣
⁠⁣
⭐️ COST: $10, donated to ⁠⁣
⭐️ WHEN: 1/17/26, 9:30am-11am⁠⁣
⭐️ WHERE: Our office in West Nashville⁠⁣
⭐️ HOST: Clara Ndiraya, LMSW⁠⁣
⭐️ THEME: New Moon Ritual: Planting What Wants to Grow⁠⁣
⁠⁣
Under January’s New Moon we gather to slow down, listen inward, and root ourselves in intention. This earth-centered ritual invites a gentle turning inward: releasing what the past season has asked you to hold, and planting seeds for what is ready to grow beneath the surface. Guided grounding, reflective journaling, symbolic release, and shared intention-setting will be woven together in a calm and supportive community space.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
No prior experience with ritual or moon work is needed. Come as you are and allow yourself to be guided by the quiet wisdom of winter, the dark moon, and collective presence.⁠⁣

⭐️ HAPPENING TOMORROW! ⭐️⁣

Join us January 3rd from 10am-11am for our free community support offering, Gaia’s Web! ⁠💚⁣
⁠⁣
Based on the Reciprocity Ring model (and inspired by indigenous frameworks that preceded it), this monthly event is built on the principles of mutual aid, where people bring forward needs (logistical, emotional, creative, or otherwise) and the group offers help, including but not limited to resources, connections, ideas, assistance, listening, and solidarity.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
Gaia’s Web is rooted in what is often called generalized reciprocity: helping others without expecting immediate return, trusting that acts of giving circulate and strengthen communal well-being.⁠⁣
⁠⁣
This gathering meets at our office on the 1st Saturday of each month from 10-11am, with a virtual option available (come in person if you can).⁣
⁠⁣
Just a few examples of the kind of requests people might bring:⁠⁣
✨ “I’d love advice on starting a podcast.”⁠⁣
✨ “I need help moving a couch next weekend.”⁠⁣
✨ “I’m looking to make a childcare swap with another parent”⁠⁣
✨ “I’m hoping someone can check on my cat for a couple of days.”⁠⁣
✨ “I’m interested in learning some basic gardening.” ⁠⁣

Curious about hypnotherapy but worried that it’s going to leave you clucking like a chicken in your sessions? 😅⁣

Hypnotherapy often gets conflated with stage hypnosis — but it’s actually a powerful healing modality that gives you a hotline to your unconscious mind 🧠⁣

If you want to learn more about how hypnotherapy can support your therapy journey, check out Emerson’s blog post at the link in our bio or schedule a free 15 min consult call ✨
