TEENS COUNSELING GROUPS

This DBT skills group is an art therapy group for individuals currently in high school. The DBT skills group focuses on teaching skills in the following areas: mindfulness, interpersonal effectiveness, emotion regulation, and distress tolerance. Group sessions focus on learning new DBT skills and exploring how DBT skills learned in previous weeks have been utilized.

Being a teenager is difficult enough without letting your experiences define you. You can take control, process, and heal all while experiencing the support of those around you. This group serves as a confidential, empathic, and safe environment where learning and processing occur. Our group is a place where you can feel supported and understood, when at times you feel like the world does not. Education on trauma, as well as its effects on your mind, body, and spirit will be discussed. We will also explore coping mechanisms that will help you process and start your healing journey. Understanding that progress and healing is not linear, but with knowledge and support it can make the weight that you carry feel less heavy.
