Welcome to The Budding Circle!

A space where growth takes root.

The Budding Circle is a group counseling experience for women ready to reconnect with themselves and others in a warm, affirming space. Just like the first blooms of spring, our sessions are designed to spark insight, renewal, and lasting growth. In this circle, healing is shared—and so is strength.

 

What to Expect

Led by Tori Barbier, LPC,The Budding Circle combines emotional support, guided reflection, and skill-building tools in a safe, therapist-facilitated environment. Each group experience offers space for women to connect over shared experiences while honoring their unique voices and journeys.

​

In group, you’ll explore themes such as:

• Burnout and emotional exhaustion

• Rest and play as fundamental life skills

• Navigating life transitions or identity shifts

• Grief, loss, and self-forgiveness

• Rebuilding self-worth and trust in yourself

• Creating healthier, more supportive relationships

 

Whether you’re looking to feel less alone in your experiences, learn new coping skills, or cultivate community as you grow, this is a space for you.

 

Who This Group Is For

The Budding Circle is ideal for women who:

• Feel burned out or overwhelmed and want meaningful connection

• Are seeking emotional healing and a safe space to process life

• Want to explore personal growth in a guided, supportive setting

• Are open to sharing and learning with others at a similar stage

• Might be in therapy individually but are curious about growing in community

 

Group size is intentionally small to foster emotional safety and connection.
