Women's Circle 40-60 First Meeting

An English-Speaking Women’s Circle in Lisbon (Ages 40–60)

I’m creating a small, intentional women’s circle in Lisbon for English-speaking women between 40 and 60 who are craving depth, consistency, and real connection.

This will be a closed group of eight women who meet weekly and commit to moving through time together. Not a drop-in or a networking group. And not group therapy.

This is a women’s circle.
A place to show up as you are.
A place to be witnessed without fixing.
A place where tenderness, honesty, and lived experience are welcome.

I am a licensed psychotherapist in New York and California and a certified couples therapist. I’ve led many women’s groups over the years and continue to be moved by how instinctively women know how to gather, listen, and hold one another when given the right container.

I will lightly facilitate the group, tending to safety, pacing, and integrity, but this is not a therapy group. It is a shared space rooted in presence, empathy, and mutual care.

This circle is for women who:

• Are willing to show up with honesty and emotional integrity
• Value listening as much as speaking
• Are curious about themselves and others
• Want a consistent, long-term group rather than a one-off experience
• Can commit to weekly attendance and shared responsibility for the container

We will meet weekly on Wednesdays 6-8 pm in Lisbon at my home in the Saldhana/Arco do Cego neighborhood.

The group will remain closed once formed to allow trust and continuity to deepen over time.

Structure and commitment
First session: €20
After the initial meeting, participants will be asked to commit to an 8-week cycle for €160

This commitment helps create stability, safety, and depth for everyone involved

If you’re interested, please message me with:

1. Your age
2. How long you expect to be in Lisbon
3. Whether you can commit to weekly participation

I’ll respond to schedule a brief phone conversation so we can ensure this is a good mutual fit and thoughtfully curate a group of eight women.

If you’re longing for meaningful connection, shared reflection, and a steady circle to return to each week, I’d love to hear from you.

I look forward to creating something special together.

This will be our first meeting so it's just about getting to know each other, experiencing the format and deciding if it's a fit to join the circle.

Just bring yourself, maybe a water bottle, and dress comfortably. Let's co-create the space together and experience the nourishment and joy that comes from women circling!
