The Perfect Group for You
If you're suffering from depression, addiction, loss of a loved one, anxiety, or any other issue, support groups can be extremely helpful. Unfortunately, these groups can be hard to find, difficult to get to, and, for some, there's the fear of others knowing that you are struggling.
We remove all those issues for you. Grove is perfect for you if you're struggling but you:
-
Don't want others to know that you're struggling
-
Can't find a group for your specific struggle in your area
-
Don't want to leave the house or travel to a support group
-
Don't want (or have the ability) to pay for a support groups
-
Don't have a way to get to groups (either you don't have transportation or other commitments, like work, don't allow you to make it on time)
Grove uses virtual reality to overcome these barriers to traditional support groups, while still letting you feel in-person with your other members. This allows you to find the right group quicker, remain anonymous, and eliminate the need for transportation.
