Where to go from here
Most of the in-person network that existed twenty years ago has either gone dormant or quietly folded. Here's where to go from here.
Get the recording + join the waitlist
Sign up below and I'll send you a recording of one of my past virtual support group calls so you can hear what the format was like. I'm not running virtual groups right now, but if enough interest builds up, I'll launch one and you'll be the first to know.
Read the ebook + handouts (free)
The disclosure ebook walks through the conversation step by step. The handouts cover body anxiety, relationship questions, and the long-term identity work. Same starting point I use with my one-on-one coaching clients.

When self-paced isn't enough, my private coaching is the deeper option. The 25-minute discovery call is $75 (33% off the regular session rate) and it's the lowest-friction way to see if we're a fit.

History: groups that used to meet in Palm Springs
For every group below, I've documented founding dates, last-known activity, and the moment its presence disappeared from the public record. Sources cited per claim.
Palm Springs Herpes Meetup Group
The Palm Springs Herpes Meetup Group was an indie social-meetup organized for the Coachella Valley HSV+ community during the broader Meetup-era expansion of HSV-positive socials in the 2010s. The group's presence on Meetup has gone quiet, and I have not been able to verify any current meeting. The Coachella Valley pulls a meaningful share of HSV+ residents from the Greater LA basin, so cross-referencing LA/OC HELP and H Socials SoCal is worth doing if you're in the area.
