Support Groups
Pineapple Support has partnered with industry therapists Jasmine Johnson of Blue Pearl Therapy, Angie Gunn of Connective Therapy and Sophia Graham of Love Uncommon to provide adult industry performers with a range of online support groups.
Sex Worker Well-being Support Group with Connective Therapy Services
Join us for a weekly conversation facilitated by a sex therapist and sex worker, focused on the complex needs of those in the field. The conversation will be collaborative and interactive, addressing trauma, relationships, emotions, and navigating personal well-being and work sustainability. This group is for womxn/ femmes in the industry, and is inclusive of all types of sex work. Thanks to the support of Pineapple Support, we are able to offer this group for free! It is a closed group; we will accept the first 10 appropriate applicants and the group will then be consistent members each week.
7 week Performer Well-being support group held on Mondays at 2pm EST and 11am PST.
Courses start December 2nd 2019
Emotion Regulation – DBT Course with Sophia Graham
Out of control emotions can make it hard to maintain friendships, romantic relationships and can even jeopardise our careers. Many of us never learned the skills we need to cope with difficult emotions, and that makes it impossible to deal effectively with stressful or distressing situations that inevitably come up in our lives. This course teaches participants how to recognise, understand and regulate emotions so that they have more choices about how to manage day to day stressors and distressing events.
