Upcoming Groups and Workshops

Empty Nesters/ Free Birders Support Groups

Online and in person in San Rafael groups starting in Fall 2025.

For parents of recently graduated high school seniors, this group will include education, reflection, and process in a supportive community.

When children move out of the home, parents often experience a profound emotional transition marked by both pride and a sense of loss. The daily routines, once centered around their children’s needs, suddenly shift, creating a quietness that can feel unfamiliar or even unsettling. This phase, often referred to as the "empty nest" period, challenges parents to redefine their identities and relationships—not only with their children, who are becoming independent adults, but also with themselves and their partners. Though the adjustment can be difficult, it also offers a chance to rediscover passions, deepen connections, and celebrate the success of raising independent individuals.
