This program is for perinatal and postpartum mothers who may be experiencing mental health symptoms. Our work focuses on day-to-day emotional processing, trauma healing, and building connections among peers. Supports and coping skills will be shared to help mitigate the stress of engaging in the world today. 

In partnership with Virginia Health Care Foundation, we anticipate serving recent and expecting mothers across the state of Virginia and bringing vital individual and group services within reach. One of our core principles is that all clients can be served regardless of their economic status. As a result of generous grant funding, we are able to offer these programs free of charge to clients, and bill insurance if/as is appropriate. This means one less stress for our clients as they seek the services and support that they need.

The ARROW Project offers a wide variety of group counseling sessions to best serve our diverse community.  Below are our current groups, with a brief description and a link to registration.  All groups listed below are offered free of charge, and participants do not need to be a current client of ARROW.

Lambert Office | Wednesdays at 4:00pm

This group is intended to support adults aged 18+ who are in various stages of recovery from substance use.  In this space, participants will find a safe outlet to express their concerns, experiences, and successes with substance use recovery, with the overarching goal to reduce occurrences of relapse in use.

Lambert Office | Thursdays at 4pm 

This group, for children ages 5-9, aims to create a safe and consistent environment that allows children to grow through the use of play. Clinicians will develop a therapeutic relationship with each child to improve functioning, and to help children develop social, emotional, and behavioral skills. 

Lambert Office | Wednesdays at 5:00pm

This group is a good fit for adults aged 18+ who are hoping to gain skills in the areas of executive functioning, coping strategies, and increased emotional awareness. Clinicians will help participants develop and utilize skills and resources derived from DBT.

Virtual | Thursdays at 7:00pm

This group will focus on understanding grief and loss, as well as developing skills to manage grief in one’s personal life.  We offer a warm and supportive environment for all to explore their relationship with grief.  Register below to receive the link to join our virtual call.

Middlebrook Office| Thursday at 6:30 pm

This group is intended for the parents of trans and non-binary individuals, but is also open to any parent who is hoping to learn more about how to best support their LGBTQ+ child. This group is an open and welcoming space to explore the journey of being a parent.

Lambert Office | Fridays at 5:00pm

This group is an ideal fit for youth ages 12-17 who identify as neurodivergent, with or without a formal diagnosis. It is meant to provide an opportunity for youth to meet other individuals in the community who are similarly hoping to explore their own neurodivergence. Additionally, clinicians will foster skill development and provide psychoeducation around the ways that neurodivergence can affect us. Above all else, it is a place to celebrate neurodiversity.

Virtual (or in person at Lambert Office when needed) | Thursdays at 7:00pm

This group is for parent engagement and community building.  Participants will discuss parenting issues and concerns, as well as share highlights and joys, and ultimately learn from each other.  This group is predominantly virtual (though can meet in person if needed), and anyone from the state of Virginia is encouraged to join.
