Goals for Individual Therapy
Individual therapy is structured around comprehensive assessment and individualized to adolescents' specific needs. Our goals are to enhance understanding of mental health, while developing and honing coping skills to sustain ongoing growth, healing and development. We use a client & family centered approach for individuals in our adolescent programming, including ongoing family sessions as needed.
Goals for Group Therapy
Group therapy aims to be an immersive experience where adolescents can benefit from both the feelings of universality and support in their struggles while also gaining vital coping skills to use in everyday life. We strive to create a safe environment where skills building, process, psychoeducation and safety groups can work to inform a better quality of life.
