The Diamond Dogs in Ted Lasso had a simple purpose: someone had a knot they couldn’t untie, they called the group - the group listened, told the truth, and everyone left feeling clearer and a part of a group that "has their back".
​
That’s what we'll do in this group.

The Diamond Dogs in Ted Lasso had a simple purpose: someone had a knot they couldn’t untie, they called the group, the group told the truth, and everyone left feeling clearer and a part of a group that "has their back".
​
I am starting this group because, as a counselor and as just a person in the world, watching Ted Lasso helped me to remember that having a group of people who "have your back" really matters - a group that can both help you understand yourself better, and gives you a chance to do the same for others. This group is not focused on solving all problems or "digging up" what is wrong with you. It will be a place to remember our strengths and values, and to keep working on how to be the people we want to be.
​
In general, in this group...
​
-
You bring whatever feels “stuck” in life (work, dating, family, etc.)
-
We listen first.
-
We ask the questions your friends and family can’t or don’t ask
-
We offer honest takes and feedback, not fixes you didn’t ask for.
-
You get a chance to support a group of others who want the same
Like the Diamond Dogs could talk about personal things without making it weird or a lecture, we'll keep it simple, respectful, straight to the point, and focused on what we really need as individuals and as a group.
