Mental Health Workshops

Healing often happens in community.

Empowerment Within of Waukesha, Wisconsin offers mental health workshops.

Even when we are not sharing our story – being around others while we feel through our story and start to create healing for ourselves can heal wounds from our past, whether we’re aware of them or not.

Empowerment Within provides workshops at our location in Waukesha, Wisconsin, and we collaborate with businesses to provide community support. If there is a past workshop you are interested in please reach out – with enough demand we will work to find a time that works best for all interested.

If you are interested in hosting a community workshop please reach out to patricefm@empowermentwithinllc.com.

Upcoming Workshops:

Untangling Body Image:
Breaking the connection that your self-worth is based on how your body looks

There’s no one right way to tackle the intensity that is body image. It’s complex, messy, layered and can be deeply personal. It's filled with unlearning old messaging that were created to keep us feeling unworthy.

In this workshop you will:

  • Learn where to start in the journey to connect back to your body and yourself.

  • Explore the deeper roots of what is driving your body shame

  • Untangle the complexities of body image and how it plays into your identity

  • Connect with others and feel seen in your struggle

Breaking the connection that your self-worth is based on how your body looks

Date & Time: Thursday April 11th 6:00pm - 7:30pn

Cost: $25

Location: Empowerment Within Main Lobby

Max Participants: 12
