Note: SD H Friends is the modern San Diego social-meetup successor to the older San Diego City HELP chapter that ran out of (619) 491-1194 and sandiegocityhelp.org back in the 2000s. Like its Bay Area and SoCal counterparts, it leans social rather than therapeutic: coffees, hikes, casual dinners. I haven't been able to surface a current public meeting calendar, but the group does keep a presence on Meetup. If you're in San Diego and looking for the format closer to the original HELP chapter (open peer sharing, more structure), the waitlist below is how I gauge whether to launch a virtual group myself.

Where to go from here

Here's where to go from here.

  1. 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.

    You'll get the recording and my free toolkit in your confirmation email, plus a heads-up if a virtual group launches. Joins my main email list. No spam, unsubscribe anytime.

  2. 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.

  3. Work with me one-on-one

    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.
