"Healing through gathering is Dr. Joy's life's work; she founded Therapy for Black Girls, creating a space to make mental health topics more relevant and accessible for Black women and girls. Now, she dives into the wisdom of group therapy to help Black women strengthen and evolve within our sisterhoods. In [this book], Dr. Joy illustrates how concepts from group therapy are relevant to our lives, whether we realize it or not. She demonstrates how our real-life sister circles function in similar ways to the ones formed in group therapy. ... [She] unearths the foundations of our connections, reveals the role of attachment theory in our friendships, offers solutions to rebuild after there has been a rupture in a friendship, and shares strategies for taking care of ourselves after a friendship ends"-- Provided by publisher.
