FAT VILLAGE: PEERS
Scroll down to sign up to the waitlist.
Fat Village is transformative.
Fat Village is an online peer process group, for fat folks to connect, build tangible relationships, share experience, foster mutual healing, and create fat joy.
Relaxed and yet intentional, this is an opportunity to come home to yourself and to your community, to build the connections and resource libraries that create and support your personal process and your body liberation.
Blending group collaboration, and consultation with me, a fat therapist, we will cover the spectrum of your fat experiences - from the light hearted to the heavy, within a group container focused on your wellbeing, safety and joy.
Some topics might include self care, advocacy, boundaries, style and clothing, relationships, resources, travel, joyful movement, rest, food, fun, fat futures, and more. I will be guided by the needs of the group as I facilitate and support us in building our focus.
Having fat community doesn't immunise us from anti-fat bias but, in a world that can be hostile to a fat experience, this group provides a nourishing antidote, and an opportunity to rest in an environment committed to affirming your identities and humanity.
Want to immerse yourself in my joyful brand of fat affirmation before joining Fat Village? Why not take a look at my Fat Bubble newsletter, which is my free weekly offering, focusing on fat joy, fat respect and fat potential. You can read the full archive here on Substack.
Want to learn a little more about my way of working, and how I incorporate my fat positive worldview into my work? Why not take a listen to my podcast appearance on Fat Joy with Sophia Apostol, on prioritising fat liberation and safety making in eating disorder treatment.

SOME MORE DETAILS
The cost of this offering is for six sessions, and follow up resource emails.
Spaces are limited to six people, to allow each member the space and time for reflection and emergence.
This is not a therapeutic group, although it will likely feel therapeutic. This is an affinity group, with the members connected by a shared social experience. Affinity groups are a powerful way to show up for, and deepen, our identity and collective experience.
Membership of the group is closed 48 hours before our first session.
This process group is a 'rolling membership' - any attending member will have first opportunity to book on to another rotation of sessions, before membership spaces are opened up to new members.
Payments can be made monthly or in full. Concession spaces are available for those who find the full amount prohibitive - please email me at hello@concentriccounselling.com to arrange this.
All payments are final and non-refundable. Refunds will not be made for missed sessions.
