This is our expertise. Based on the information you provide during the onboarding process, we’ll match you with other members and the workshop that best suits your needs. Our goal is to set you up in a circle of support that leads to real, meaningful human connections.

Have a question we haven’t addressed? We’re here for you.
All Circle therapists are professionally trained, with extensive experience in their respective field and in providing individual and group emotional support. All therapists undergo an internal Circles vetting and training process, to make sure their approach and caregiving techniques match our professional standards. Circle therapists are trained social workers, psychologists, and therapists.
Membership starts at $20 a week, billed weekly. At the moment. Membership includes a live weekly workshop with a professional therapist, unlimited access to our specialized content, exercises, and webinars, 24/7 support, and messaging capabilities with other members and your therapist.
Group meetings last for one hour and meet once a week. Each group is composed of the same group of people (up to 7) each week, though there may occasionally be new additions to the group if space opens up. The workshop will be guided by the same therapist every week, who will lead the group discussion and provide specific exercises and tools that fit the workshop members’ needs. If you don’t feel like talking or sharing, that’s ok. You can just listen. But we do require everyone to have their camera on live during the session, to ensure full trust and transparency within the group. If you choose to use a nickname in the group, that’s fine.
