Through a Therapeutic Lens: Juno
Through a Therapeutic Lens is a therapist-facilitated film series for people who love movies, love talking about them afterward, and want to explore the deeper meanings, relationships, and human experiences within them.
Thursday, November 12, 2026 | 6:30–9:30 PM
For our next screening, we’ll watch Juno before moving into a thoughtful community conversation facilitated by Lauren Winick, LCSW, exploring themes of growing up, autonomy, family, responsibility, longing, pregnancy, idealization, and the complicated difference between feeling ready for something and actually being ready for what it asks of you.
Your ticket includes the screening, facilitated conversation, snacks, and nonalcoholic drinks.
Verbal participation is optional. Guests are expected to remain for the post-screening conversation and are always welcome to listen.
Through a Therapeutic Lens: Coraline

For our next screening, we’ll be watching Coraline, followed by a facilitated community conversation exploring themes including family dynamics, loneliness, longing, the desire to feel seen and understood, the appeal of a seemingly perfect world, and the complicated relationship between love, control, and autonomy.
Tickets are $25, snacks and nonalcoholic drinks are included, and the event is limited to 15 guests. It’s open to adults 18+.

A Good Question | Sunday Morning Reflection
Sunday Morning Reflection is a quiet, therapist-held gathering for people who want a calm place to slow down and spend an hour in thoughtful company. Hosted by Lauren Winick, LCSW.
We begin with a reflection prompt and then spend the hour journaling, sipping coffee or tea, listening to music, and simply sharing space together. Some people keep to themselves, some people chat a bit, and sharing anything out loud at the end is always optional.
This is not therapy or a therapy group. It is simply a peaceful space to pause, reflect, and be around other people without pressure to socialize, perform, or process anything out loud.
Coffee, tea, milk, honey, and pastries will be available. You’re welcome to bring your own drink, breakfast, journal, or whatever helps you settle in.
What this hour usually includes:
a thoughtful prompt to reflect on
quiet journaling time
soft music
coffee or tea
optional connection with other attendees
no pressure to share
no pressure to “do it right”
Some people come feeling social. Some don’t. Both are welcome.
Important note
This is not therapy, crisis support, or a processing group. If you are looking for individual therapy or a therapy group, you can learn more about our practice at everybodytherapyny.com.
