We get messages about how we “should” think\, act\, and feel\, but rarely have spaces where we can slow down\, speak honestly\, and explore what it actually means to be a man today. \nThis group is limited to 8 seats. Tickets are pay what you can between $30 and $180 (which is $2.5 to $15 hourly) for the 6 session series. You are encouraged to attend each of the sessions as the content will be compounding from start to finish. Registration will close when all 8 seats are filled. \nThis therapy group is a supportive and structured space for young men to reflect deeply on the experience of masculinity\, to share what’s real\, and to learn from one another. Here\, we examine the internal and external forces that shape how we move through the world: from cultural expectations to personal hopes and struggles.Whether you’re navigating relationships\, work\, family dynamics\, identity\, or the pressures of societal expectations\, this group offers a place to explore those experiences with care\, curiosity\, and respect. \nThe dates for this event are:\n\nThursday\, February 19th\nThursday\, March 5th\nThursday\, March 19th\nThursday\, April 2nd\nThursday\, April 16th\nThursday\, April 30th\n\nEach meeting will include…\n\nAn experiential activity to deepen our friendship within the group and explore authentic forms of connection\nHold a container for open sharing of a lived experience\, with or without response (your choice)\, from those who wish to speak\nOffer and receive reflections from fellow group members if desired\nOpen to a group discussion on themes that arise within the meeting\nIdentify a “take home” which may be in the form of reflection\, practice\, or an intention for the weeks between meetings\nClose with a ceremony offering a moment of reverence for the community we have created\n\nThis group might be for you if…\n\nYou are feeling alone in your lived experiences\nYou have desire to deepen in your relationships\nYou want to meet other men in friendship and connection outside of the bar scene\nYou feel dissatisfied with culture at large\nYou want to stop feeling ashamed of being a man and instead wish to establish an expression of your masculinity that embodies integrity\, respect\, and strength\n\nWhat you’ll walk away with…\n\nA deeper sense of self\nAppreciation and reverence for your own manhood\nA sense of community and connection through shared human experience\nInsight on how to show up with greater integrity in your interpersonal relationships\n\n\n← Back Thank you for your response. ✨\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\nName(required)\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\nEmail(required)\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\nBirthdate (required for portal registration) (YYYY-MM-DD)(required)\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\nWhat are you able to pay for this event?

As a host\, Erik invites others into conversations that explore identity\, vulnerability\, and the stories we’ve inherited about what it means to “be a man.” He believes that freedom begins with unlearning\, and that emotional honesty is a form of resistance. \n  \n  \n  \n  \nSeth Parker is an Marriage and Family Therapy intern\, supervised by Miranda Hosbein. He strongly believes in the healing power of community and is passionate about supporting men in stepping into their wholeness through exploration of masculinity and shared experiences of roles as men\, spouses\, fathers\, professionals\, friends\, sons\, and so on. \n  URL:https://kalamazootherapygroup.com/event/mens-group-tending-the-flame/ LOCATION:Kalamazoo Therapy Group\, 1901 Parkview Ave Suite 1\, Kalamazoo\, MI\, 49008\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://kalamazootherapygroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/Mens-Group-169-2.0.png END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
