CO-VID 19:

We want you to know that CAFA is here for you during the CO-VID 19 pandemic.
Though our methods are changing for the time being our mission is still the same.

We know that many of you have already been meeting with one of our therapists or participating in a CAFA group and have wanted to continue to be a part of these.

Others of you may need temporary therapy via Telehealth or would like to start with therapy for the long-term.

The good news is that we have options for everyone and want to help you as you navigate life and the pandemic.

Please take a moment to look at our Telehealth options below:

Group Options:

Men’s and Women’s OPAC (Outgrowing Power Anger and Control) groups:

OPAC groups are designed to increase the emotional intelligence of group participants. Specifically, we aim to increase empathy, self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, and relationship management by introducing and practicing tools that give insight into new ways of thinking, behaving, and regulating our emotions when we find ourselves tipped over. The tools presented in the course are supportive of increasing a client's emotional regulation abilities as well as widening their window of tolerance. Graduates have reported that the tools presented in the groups were beneficial in all of their relationships from intimate and familial to professional.
