Join therapist and author Roya Dedeaux in over 20 group events each month.

I might be biased -but can't we all benefit from therapy?

I understand why we don't all have a therapists - at the end of the day, it's expensive to go private pay and really difficult to find a great therapist through insurance.

I'm trying to get more mental health services to more people.

That's where

THE RECREATIVE

comes in

"This webinar was great. It opened my eyes to things I probably knew deep down but need that outside person to say it. She has so much insight and knowledge that helps you feel much more calm and trusting of your decisions." Krista

"Creating art in a non-judgmental, supportive, and safe environment has been crucial to allowing my child to work on her anxiety and depression in a way that would not otherwise be possible. Highly recommend both Roya and the art group sessions." Tina

"This group has helped my daughter's anxiety immensely. The "SO INCREDIBLY KIND" to each other is spot on. Thanks Roya for offering this option for those of us that have teens that are navigating through their desire to have friends against their anxiety that holds them back." Autumn

The two are standing side by side, smiling and happy to be cooking together. This image captures the bond and love between a mother and daughter and their shared love of cooking and creating together.

The RECREATIVE is a virtual community center

that is set up like a martial arts or dance studio - I offer a TON of groups and workshops every month.

You choose what level you'd like to pay and how many you'd like to attend each week!

Want to do just one a week? Awesome. Sign up for Level 1 and you can pick which workshop you go to each week.

Think you'd like to take a writing workshop, attend the webinars, AND go to the group for moms with trans kids? Great - select Level 3 where you get to choose 3 groups to attend each week!

I even offer an unlimited option so you can attend everything your heart desires.

4 pricing levels available

There will only be 3 sessions offered in 2024. Winter, Spring, and Fall. Each has 10 weekly meetings via video chat. There will be a limited number of spots available - my goal is to give each participant a lot of individualized attention.
