Nurturing the Child Within

Inner Child Healing Workshop

This intimate in person workshop is designed for individuals who feel ready to reconnect with younger parts of themselves and begin healing long held emotional wounds in a supportive and intentional space.

Led by Jessica Garcia, LCSW, a first generation Latina therapist, this experience integrates Internal Family Systems informed parts work, somatic awareness, and culturally responsive healing practices. Together, we will explore how early experiences continue to shape our relationships, self worth, boundaries, and nervous system responses today.

Many of us learned to survive by becoming strong, responsible, or emotionally self sufficient. This workshop offers space to slow down, listen inward, and build compassion toward the parts of you that learned to carry so much at a young age.

What participants can expect:
• Guided inner child and parts work exercises
• Somatic practices to reconnect with the body
• Psychoeducation on attachment and nervous system responses
• Reflection and journaling practices
• Gentle group connection in a small, supportive setting

This is not traditional group therapy but a structured therapeutic workshop experience rooted in clinical frameworks and experiential healing.

Because of the depth of this work, participation is limited to 5–6 individuals to maintain safety, connection, and individualized support.

Location: Healing Waves Therapy & Counseling, Raleigh NC
Length: 2-3 hour in person workshop
Facilitated by: Jessica Garcia, LCSW
