Pineapple Support Launches Support Group to Help Performers Suffering from Addiction

LOS ANGELES — Pineapple Support will host a free online support group for those struggling with addiction, exploring alternative methods to tolerate stressors and self-soothe.

The six-week support group, “Freedom from Addiction,” will be led by Pineapple Support therapist Charlie Nicely and will begin Tuesday at 3:30 p.m. PDT.

"This group will take a Buddhist approach to recovery by using mindful awareness in recognizing habitual patterns of behavior and making new, more supportive choices," Nicely explained. "We'll also be working together to increase self-soothing and distress tolerance without engaging in potentially addictive behaviors."

Pineapple Support founder Leya Tanit said, “This group is a processes group that’s grounded in the potential for each group member to recover and find freedom from the suffering of addiction. Each group will include a brief meditation, a reading and an open sharing portion over the course of six weeks. Taking this path together, we will work towards finding and respecting our own individual journeys."

Sessions will last for approximately one hour and will take place each Tuesday at the same time until Nov. 21.
