Purposeful Pages, A Therapeutic Book Club

Reading, in general, is a well known and time-tested method to support mental health and well-being. Reading on your own is great, but evidence suggests reading and discussing deeper concepts with a group is even better! With such an abundance of amazing and insightful selections these days, its an ideal time to dig in deeper!

This therapist-led book club is designed as a supportive space for personal growth, emotional wellness, and purposeful connection. Meeting twice a month, the group explores thoughtfully selected self-help and emotional wellness literature that encourages self-reflection.

Discussions may be centered around applying the book's themes and insights to real-life experiences…creating opportunities for deeper self-awareness and intentional change. More than just a reading group, this book club is a guided space for self-care—offering members a chance to invest in their mental health, build emotional resilience, and connect with others who are similarly interest in their own personal development.

Join the “Purposeful Pages Book Club Facebook Group” where participants are encouraged to converse, ask questions, share their perspectives/opinions, etc. in-between meetings!

FAQs

The first meeting will be focused on discussing the book/the book’s topic from a general sense. For ex: if the book is centered around boundaries, the group will collectively discuss their need for, experience, knowledge, familiarity, etc. with boundaries.
