Healing After Hard Goodbyes

Still Carrying It

Do you ever wonder why you still miss them—even after everything they did?

You made the hard choice.
You left the relationship. Or maybe they left you.
Either way, you know it had to end.


But here you are—months (or even years) later—and the grief still sneaks up on you.


You find yourself missing the good moments.
Second-guessing your memory.
Grieving the future you thought you were building.
Feeling ashamed of how long you stayed—or how quickly you left.


And worst of all?
You feel like no one understands.

Lets explore...

Let'sName the Truth

You're Still Carrying It.

You're carrying the betrayal. The heartbreak

The quesetions that loop in your mind at 2 a.m.


You're carrying the shame that whispers , "You should be over this by now".


And you're carrying it alone....

Can you relate?

Is this Group for you?

This Group was created for you

Still Carrying It is an 8-week therapeutic support group for deep feelers and thinkers—people healing from breakups, divorce, infidelity, trauma bonds, or emotionally unhealthy relationships.


You don’t need to be freshly heartbroken.
You don’t need to have the perfect explanation.
You just need to be ready to not do it alone anymore.


Whether you're grieving someone who hurt you, feeling ashamed of your past, or unsure how to trust yourself again—this group was built with your healing in mind.

Why....

we grieve the people who hurt us

If you're googling “Why do I miss my toxic ex?” or “Why do I still love someone who cheated on me?”—you’re not alone. This kind of grief is real. And it’s deeply misunderstood.


When we lose a relationship—especially one that held hope, identity, and safety—it’s not just the person we’re grieving.


It’s the version of ourselves we were in that relationship.
The life we thought we were building.
The promises that were never kept.
The idea that love would be enough.

Whats your reason?

What makes this group different?

This isn't a surface-level "moving on" group.

This is deep work held with deep compassion.


Each week, we’ll explore a different layer of post-relationship pain. We’ll untangle shame, explore grief, understand the trauma bond, and begin rewriting the stories we carry about ourselves.


Here’s a look at some of our weekly themes:


📅 You’re Not Crazy—You’re Grieving

Understand the hidden grief that follows endings—even the ones that were “necessary.”


📅 I Should’ve Known Better 

A compassionate look at the shame we carry for staying, trusting, or loving. 


📅 Trauma Bonds & the Push–Pull Cycle 

Why you feel addicted to chaos, miss the highs, and second-guess the pain. 


📅 Emotional Whiplash 

Grieving in waves—learning to ride the ups and downs without self-blame.

 

📅 Who Am I Without This Relationship? 

Rebuilding identity, self-worth, and the inner compass that may have gone quiet. 


📅 Boundaries, Safety & Self-Trust 

Reclaiming your “no.” Relearning what safe connection feels like.


📅 Rewriting the Narrative

Owning your story—not through blame or bypassing, but with clarity and strength. 


📅 Integration & What’s Next  

How to move forward with gentleness, power, and renewed purpose.

But....

"I've already done therapy..."

Perfect.

Most of the people who join this group have already done the books, the podcasts, the 1:1 sessions.

But something’s still stuck. 

And community —safe, held community —is what helps unstick it.
