The Coping & Confident Teen group is the most effective way to take your teen from overwhelmed with emotion and self-doubt to: Learn practical skills and strategies to manage emotional ups and downs; understand why avoiding their emotions actually makes things worse, and how they can learn to cope and practice skills with peer support; how our group clients can gain self-confidence and a sense of belonging in as little as 8 weeks; how they can get the support and connection they need while still practicing social distancing and staying home!

For children 8-11 years old who are scared, worried, and withdrawn. We will work together to help them build courage, confidence, and feeling more calm. With the help of parents (who will be involved in some of the sessions and have additional parenting support around child anxiety), we will engage in fun and novel ways to learn about the anxiety cycle, develop coping skills and strategies, and face fears.
