HERPES SUPPORT
FOR MEN
A twice-monthly support group for men navigating herpes stigma.
Herpes can shake your sense of identity and lower your confidence. This group is a space for men to be together without judgment, to talk openly, get support, and find aligned ways to move forward through shared experiences and community.
This isn’t therapy (while I am in Yoga Therapy training). It’s more like a locker room in the sense of a brotherhood. The support call serves as your vent session to decompress before entering the shared space so that we can move forward with intention. It’s a somewhat structured, intentional space where men can process their feelings about their diagnosis, share challenges, and offer guidance to each other from a place of accountability and respect. If you’re on the fence and want to know what to expect, here’s some of the men’s content we’ve produced in the past to give you a feel for the facilitator.
Whether you’re struggling to date, navigating self-doubt, or need to be around other men who get it, this space exists for you.
About the Group
Meets: 2nd & 4th Monday of each month
Time: 7:30 pm Eastern (on Zoom)
Donation Required: Pay what you can to support the space
Facilitator: Courtney Brame, Founder of SPFPP
Before You Join
A 1-on-1 support call is required before being added to the group. This helps ensure readiness and alignment with the group’s tone and purpose.
Participation is by donation—this helps sustain and protect the container.
This is a yoga-informed space grounded in presence, structured by mutual respect, and held with nonjudgmental awareness. Think of it like a men’s locker room with accountability. We don’t believe in safe spaces; we believe in intentional ones.
What You’ll Get
Real conversation with other men navigating herpes stigma
Tools for processing emotions, shame, and identity
A structured container for support, reflection, and growth
Space to speak freely without fear of getting canceled (but expect accountability)
