Support/Psychoeducation Groups

Our Support and Psychoeducation Groups offer a welcoming space where you can connect with others who share similar experiences. These groups provide an opportunity to learn, share, and grow together. By participating, you'll gain valuable insights and practical strategies to manage life’s challenges, all while feeling supported by a community that truly understands. It’s a comforting place to find encouragement, foster resilience, and embrace personal development in a collective setting.

What if therapy happened inside a story?

This June, ICA Counselling & Supervision is launching something new: our Dungeons & Dragons + DBT Skills Therapy Group — a small-group therapy experience where evidence-based DBT skills are learned and practiced live, through collaborative storytelling.

DBT teaches the four skill areas that help us move through big emotions — mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness. D&D gives us a low-stakes, creative container to actually try those skills out, not just talk about them. You don't need any D&D experience — our registered clinician and trained Dungeon Master will walk you through everything.

Who it's designed for — Youth 13–17 and adults 18+ (separate cohorts) — Neurodivergent folks (ADHD, autism, and more) — People navigating anxiety, emotional overwhelm, or social stress — Anyone who learns better by doing than by talking about it

The details — 8 weekly sessions, 90–120 minutes each — Small groups of 4–6 participants — Virtual or in-person — Insurance receipts provided; sliding scale available — Starts June 2026

Spaces are limited and fill on a first-come basis.
