Connection, Understanding, and Therapeutic Growth
Our Hoarding Support Groups offer a warm, confidential, and professionally facilitated space for people who want to better understand their relationship with clutter, trauma, and overwhelm — and to connect with others who truly “get it”.
Each group is led by our Occupational Therapists and Therapeutic Support Workers, using the Tree of Transformation™ Framework to guide reflection, emotional safety, and meaningful change.
These are specialist, therapeutic groups, not drop-ins or informal peer sessions.
They are available through private funding, partnership arrangements, or supported places funded by grants and community sponsors.
“As a Community Interest Company, Enabling Spaces CIC also seeks grant funding and community sponsorship to offer supported places to individuals who would otherwise be unable to access specialist therapy groups.”
What to Expect
- Gentle, guided reflection on how clutter, emotions, routines, and daily life connect
- Trauma-informed discussion in a safe, non-judgemental environment
- Structured therapeutic activities that build awareness, pacing, and motivation
- Peer connection and shared understanding, reducing shame and isolation
- Tools and insights that complement 1:1 therapy or support ongoing recovery
- Weekly themes based on the Tree of Transformation™ (Roots, Bark, Branches, Sap, etc.)
Groups run for a set number of weeks and follow a structured therapeutic format, with space for individual needs and experiences.
Who Can Join
- People living with hoarding or chronic clutter
- Individuals preparing for, waiting for, or stepping down from 1:1 support
- Those wanting continued emotional support and connection
- Anyone who has felt alone, overwhelmed, or misunderstood in their journey
What Makes Our Groups Different
• OT-led -grounded in clinical understanding of trauma, executive functioning, daily living, and emotional regulation
• Therapeutic, not task-focused
• Specialist built specifically for hoarding, self-neglect, and complex home environments
• Framework-guided, each session integrates the Tree of Transformation™
• Emotionally safe, shame-reducing, paced, and trauma-informed
• Accessible through multiple pathways, self-funded, partnership-supported, or grant-funded places
These groups remind people that they are not alone, and that recovery is not about perfection, but about gentle progress made together.
