Groups for Hospitality Professionals

Group Therapy is a powerful way for individuals to come together in order to process their feelings, receive validation, and give support to other people. Our therapists work carefully to provide group members a space to feel heard and understood. With the impact of recent measures, Coastline Wellness Group wants to support professionals in the Hospitality Industry who have been impacted by closing restaurants. The following groups are offered free of charge to chefs and managers. For more information, complete the form below and you will be contacted by one of our therapists.

Coastline Wellness Group has connected with the California Hospitality Coalition in an effort to provide appropriate resources. The California Hospitality Coalition was created by the LA dining and hospitality community in response to the COVID-19 shutdowns. They have already done incredible work in advocating and supporting the community. If you have any further questions about getting involved with the coalition, feel free to reach out at their Instagram, @cahospitalitycoaliton.

Our groups include the following: 

Support Group for Chefs Tuesdays 3-4:30 PM

The Support Group for Chefs aims to provide a space for chefs to dialogue about what these experiences have been like during this pandemic. It is a specialized group that is open to chefs, sous chefs, culinary professionals seeking understanding in this trying time. The goal is to “86” maladaptive thoughts and create a space to connect in these troubling times. It will run for 1.5 hours one time per week.

Support Group for Managers Wednesdays 4:30-6 PM

The Support Group for Managers provides an open space to discuss and process the impacts of COVID-19 on mental health. Though we recognize the universal impact on everyone in the hospitality industry, we want a more specialized space to discuss the unique stressors related to restaurant management. The group runs for 1.5 hours one time per week.     

Culinary Industry Support Group (Open to All Chefs and Managers) Thursdays 3-4:30 PM

The Culinary Industry Support Group addresses the direct and indirect impacts of COVID-19. Through tele-therapy, participants of up to ten people can provide support, process experiences, and discuss adaptive coping strategies.
