Trans and Gender Expansive Pleasure Oriented Support Group

Wednesdays, 7pm - 8:30pm, Fall 2023

Georgetown Healing Arts

Co-facilitated by Kk Lightsmith (they/them), MA, MEd, LMFT and Blaze Creature (they/them), MA, LMHCA. Kk has been serving queer, trans, and gender expansive folks as a therapist for over 5 years and has been an active member of the queer and polyamory community for over a decade. Visit OddFlockTherapy.com to read Kk's full bio and learn about their practice.

Trans and gender expansive individuals are often forgotten or ignored in their process of integrating erotic belonging in their bodies, communities, and the collective psyche. Sex, desire, the erotic, and/or the lack-there-of are central to self-actualization, and have beautiful, strange, exhilarating, and sometimes dysregulating manifestations in all bodies, including those of trans and gender expansive people. Together, we will explore the space of trans and gender expansive desire. We will encounter the meaning of queer erotic wholeness and use it for healing. This series will be co-led by myself and my trans non-binary partner. This group is a culmination of our work as embodied, trans therapists, sexual-beings-in-healing, and advocates for liberation. The group will be experiential, but will not include explicit sexual touch between participants or facilitators. 8 participants.

Process Group

Thursdays, 7pm - 8:30pm, Fall 2023

Georgetown Healing Arts

Process groups offer us a unique opportunity to hold and be held in our process within a growth and healing oriented community. In a process group, the individuals form a circle in which they mirror, play, experiment, enact, and care for one another. This format is fundamentally experiential and has the potential to be deeply transformative. Process groups offer individual transformation, but more importantly, they are a rare and sacred opportunity to be part of healing beyond the individual. For this reason, process groups are profound tools for healing isolation, working through issues of trust, and building skills that lead to a life of connection and right relationship. Facilitated by Blaze, 6 - 8 participants. Trans facilitated, open to people of all genders.
