Teen Group Therapy
The teen years tend to be characterized by raging hormones, lack of impulse control, big feelings and friendship drama. When in reality, teens are just being who they are and doing the things they know to do. With the help of trained therapists to guide the process and the connection with other peers their age, your teen can turn their overwhelm into possibility and aimlessness into purposeful action. It’s not quite friendship therapy, but your teen will find a place where they can connect and vulnerably share with others, creating the meaningful relationships they crave.
Our group therapy sessions are best known for being a supportive environment where teens want to come to. Our customized curriculum combines yoga, mindfulness, creative expression, and talk therapy to help unlock your teens potential and help them gain clarity in their lives that inevitably serves to propel them powerfully into their young adult lives with satisfying relationships—with themselves, with family members, in romantic relationships, and beyond.
Why Group?
Connection is key.
Groups are especially helpful for teens because their primary source of influence at this stage of their development is their peer group. This is a normal developmental milestone and one that can cause a lot of friction at home when parent’s do not approve or have concerns about who their teen is hanging out with.
Now is the time to learn resilience. When we give ourselves the space to learn healthy coping skills and explore our inner world with others we trust, confidence and adaptability grow. This is the kind of environment we’re proud to cultivate for teenagers at The Flourishing Way.
Many of our teen clients come to us after a setback such as divorce, relationship therapy, a death in the family, or another big loss. We also help teens through school changes, breakups, relationship counseling, and any other change that feels challenging. We’ll help your teen process what happened and learn healthy coping skills so they can step into adulthood with confidence.
Teens now, more than ever, need a safe space to discover who they are.
