Pineapple Support to Host âFamily Conflictâ Support Group |
LOS ANGELES â Pineapple Support, the adult industryâs leading mental health nonprofit, will provide a free, online support group with a focus on family conflict and support. The six-week support group, âFamily Conflict and Supportâ will be provided by counselor Steven Mollura, LPC, LMHC and will start Tuesday, July 6th at 3 p.m. EST. "This support group focuses on the unique stressors related to adult entertainment on performers and family members," says Mollura. "We provide a safe place to explore the characteristics of healthy family relationships, appropriate assertiveness with family members, and the hidden dynamics that shape your life."Pineapple Support was founded by British performer Leya Tanit in 2018, after a string of losses in the adult industry from depression and other mental illnesses. The organization, which is a qualified 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization in the United States, has so far connected over 2000 adult performers to mental health services, including free and low-cost, therapy, counseling and emotional support."Steven is a kink-aware counselor that helps individuals gain insight into the meaning of their lives as well as address the unknown or unconscious factors affecting thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and beliefs," says Tanit. "We're very excited to have such a talented counselor leading this support group to help equip performers with the knowledge and tools necessary to effectively deal with family conflict.âThe âFamily Conflict and Supportâ support group begins on Tuesday July 6th at 3 p.m. EST, and will take place online each Tuesday at the same time until August 10th.
