Group Sessions
About our Group Sessions
Student interns at Family Service of El Paso offer a variety of psychoeducational and processing groups throughout the year. These groups are typically offered free of charge to the community and focus on topics such as personal growth, coping skills, and emotional well-being. While the groups are free, participants may be asked to complete a brief screening or registration process to ensure the group is a good fit. Current and upcoming groups can be found below.
Group Participation Notice:
To help create a safe and trusting environment for participants, some groups may close to new members after the first few sessions. This decision may occur midway through the group and is made at the discretion of the group facilitator to maintain the privacy and comfort of current participants.
