Herpes support groups in Washington DC
As of 2026, there's no active in-person herpes support group meeting that I can verify in Washington DC. There used to be more. I've documented every chapter that existed, when it ran, and the moment its presence disappeared from the record. Below are the next steps I can offer right now.
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.

The history: groups that used to meet in Washington DC
The ASHA HELP network covered Washington DCfor years. Below is every chapter I've been able to document, with sources. If any of these still meet and I've marked them defunct in error, tell me on the group page and I'll update the record.
HELP of Washington. Washington
HELP of Washington was the DC-area ASHA HELP chapter at the 2008 network peak, running out of (301) 369-1323 with herpeshelpofwashington.org as its public face. The chapter served the District plus the close-in Maryland and Virginia suburbs. By 2026 the website is dead and there's no ASHA-listed in-person DC-area herpes support group still meeting. The broader recon I've done surfaces sporadic NIH-area Facebook events but nothing I can verify on a recurring schedule. If you're in the DC metro, the waitlist below is the active option.
