How does group therapy help teens?

Group therapy helps teens connect with peers facing similar challenges, reducing isolation while building coping skills, emotional resilience, and confidence through shared experiences.

What happens during group therapy sessions?

Sessions are led by a therapist and include guided discussions where participants share experiences, practice communication skills, and support one another in a structured and safe environment.

How many people are in a group therapy session?

Group therapy typically includes 4 to 10 adolescents, allowing for meaningful interaction while maintaining a supportive and manageable group dynamic.

How long do group therapy sessions last?

Sessions usually last between 60 and 90 minutes and are held weekly, though the duration and structure may vary depending on the group’s goals.

What is the difference between open and closed groups?

Open groups allow new members to join over time, while closed groups maintain the same participants for a set period, creating a more consistent group experience.

Group Therapy For Young Adults

A SAFE SPACE TO CONNECT AND GROW

Young adulthood can be surprisingly isolating. Friendships shift, relationships become more complicated, family roles change, and there can be pressure to seem like you know what you are doing even when you do not.

Led by one or two therapists, group gives you the opportunity to:

Build genuine connection with people in a similar stage of life
Gain perspective and insight from people outside your usual circle
Learn more about yourself through how you connect, communicate, and relate to others
Get more comfortable expressing yourself by sharing your thoughts, speaking up, and having honest conversations with others

OUR CURRENT GROUPS

What To Expect In Group

Each group has a clear focus and structure, with room for what members are actually navigating that week.

Sessions may include check ins, open discussion, therapist guided questions, activities, and practical tools. Therapists help guide the conversation and make connections between what members share and what may be happening beneath the surface.

The group is guided, not scripted. Members can take time to get comfortable and participate at their own pace.

Thoughtfully Matched Groups

Who is in the room matters. We consider age, life stage, personality, what each person wants support with, and the overall group dynamic. Everyone speaks with a therapist before joining to make sure the group feels like a good fit.

Group lets you work with relationship patterns in real time. You may notice when you hold back, expect judgment, or pull away when something feels uncomfortable. With support, you can check assumptions, speak more directly, and try a different way of responding.

Schedule a Complimentary Consultation

Group therapy is $50 per 75-minute session.

Some groups run as a fixed series, while others allow rolling enrollment. Consistent attendance is encouraged because trust and familiarity help the group become more useful over time.

If you are unable to attend a particular week, you will not be charged for that session. Specific attendance expectations will be reviewed during your consultation or screening call.

A limited number of reduced-fee spots are available based on financial need.
