Winter 2027 Healing Circle Season begins

Welcome to the Healing Circle Season. We are so glad you are here.

Over the next 12 weeks, you will meet weekly with your circle, a small, consistent group of peers who share your relationship to child sexual abuse, held by volunteer Circle Keepers with their own lived experience.

What to expect before your first circle:

Your Keepers will reach out to schedule a Welcome Call before the season begins. This is a chance to meet your Keepers, ask any questions, and get a sense of what to expect before you arrive in circle for the first time.

What to expect in circle:

• Sessions run approximately 75 to 90 minutes and a commitment to start and end on time
• Most circles meet virtually via Zoom unless specifically indicated
• Personal sharing is invited but never required
• Three container building sessions. Your second week is dedicated to building your circle's container together, including agreements, access needs, and anything else that will help your group show up for one another

Didn't get into a circle this season?

We know how disappointing it can be to miss out, and we're sorry you're not in Circle this season. If you were waitlisted, you'll automatically be added to the pre-registration list for the next season, giving you early access before spots open to the public.

In the meantime, we hope you'll stay connected. Follow us on Facebook and Instagram and subscribe to our mailing list, and consider joining us for a Summer Workshop when the season comes around.

Questions? Reach out to your Keepers directly or email info@hiddenwaternyc.org.
