HIV Support Group
Being diagnosed with HIV can be a lonely experience, especially in this day and age when infections have decreased thanks to PrEP and U=U. Damm Therapies is launching an empowerment group for individuals newly diagnosed with HIV to provide connection and support.
From navigating medications to finding healthcare, dating to sero-discordant relationships, there is a whole new world to navigate. This empowerment group will be a network of fellow HIV thrivers sharing their journey and discovering new resources. Virtual and in-person groups are available. Insurance and self-pay options. Individual therapy is also available. Email Jonathan Stacks at j.s.stacks@protonmail.com or
text 773-236-2354 for more information.
