Find Connection, Build Community in a Safe, Professionally-Supported Space

A Path To Community

Support groups at The Circle Clinic, in Leiden or Online

Why Join a Support Group?

At The Circle Clinic, we believe healing happens in connection. Our support groups offer a safe, supportive space to share, grow, and build resilience together.

Whether navigating grief, managing anxiety, or improving relationships, our tailored groups provide evidence-based techniques, meaningful discussions, and self-discovery – all guided by compassionate facilitators. Open to everyone, these small, confidential sessions focus on creating a sense of community.

Support groups are recurring meetings, that you can drop in on.
