This free monthly series is brought to you by San Diego Lyme Alliance & Bay Area Lyme Foundation

The Empowerment Circle is intended to offer a safe space to process feelings and experiences related to Lyme Disease while receiving peer support. This group is educational and supportive in nature and will offer self-care strategies to assist you during this difficult time. It will not engage in rendering psychological or healthcare advice for any particular individual or situation.

The Empowerment Circle will not provide medical, mental health or any other type of health service. No diagnosis, treatment recommendations or advice regarding any medical or mental health condition or illness will be offered. The support group cannot be a substitute for or alternative to treatment when a medical or mental health condition is present. Empowerment Circle group members are advised to seek professional services from licensed physicians, psychiatrists, psychologists and health care professionals, if and when necessary.

No matter where you are in your healing journey—whether you’re managing your way through a flare or in remission—we’re so grateful you’re here. You are never alone.
