How Therapy Groups Help Kids, Teens, and Young Adults Thrive

Our therapy groups offer supportive and engaging spaces to connect with peers while building confidence and practical skills. Guided by experienced clinicians, each group fosters self-awareness, strengthens relationships, and supports emotional growth in a collaborative environment.

Group members connect, share, and grow together – building resilience, empathy, and strategies for coping with challenges while fostering a sense of identity and belonging. We currently have openings in all of our weekly groups.

Our six groups are designed to provide support at different stages:

  • Girl Power (grades 3-5) focuses on building confidence and self-expression through creative activities and supportive peer interaction.
  • Tween Connections (grades 5-7) helps preteens strengthen social skills, navigate friendships, and develop emotional awareness. For all genders.
  • Compassion and Grit (grades 9-12) emphasizes resilience, empathy, and coping strategies, helping participants face challenges with self-compassion while staying connected to themselves and others. For all genders.
  • Wellness Grit (grades 9-12) integrates emotional wellness for teens living with chronic pain with practical tools for stress management, self-care, and perseverance in daily life. For all genders.
  • Rainbow Grit (grades 9-12) provides an affirming, inclusive space for LGBTQ+ teens to explore identity, build resilience, and experience a strong sense of belonging and support.
  • Explore Your Path (ages 18-26) helps young adults build independence and navigate life transitions. It integrates guidance from experts in nutrition, fitness, mindfulness, and more, while fostering connection and practical skills for well-being. For all genders.

Therapy groups can be combined with other mental health services or serve as a cost-effective standalone option for weekly support. Some groups take a hiatus over the summer; we welcome you to reach out and learn about the options that might best support your family.
