HERPES SUPPORT
FOR MEN

A 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.

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: 4th Wednesday of each month (unless there’s a need to reschedule which we give notice prior )

  • Time: 7:30 pm Eastern (on Google Meet)

  • Donation Required: $25 to register

  • 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)

How to Join

  • Schedule a 1-on-1 support call with Courtney.

  • Fill out the intake form to schedule the call.

  • After the call, you’ll donate to the Men’s Support Group fund and get the calendar invite for the next upcoming session.
