Learn the Skills to stop your fear from taking over
Social anxiety can be so draining! After COVID, tons of kids struggled to make sense of the social world again. The thoughts we have impacted the way that we engage in our world. If your teen is:
-
Struggling with peer interactions
-
Avoiding many social situations due to their anxiety (engaging with teachers, students, and their community)
-
Gets stuck in thought patterns about social interactions
This Social Anxiety Group Will Help Your Teen!
-
Learn precisely how anxiety works: The first part of the puzzle is learning and knowing EXACTLY how anxiety works. In this group, you will learn the ins and outs of anxiety, how it impacts you and your struggles with socialization, and how to get out of the anxiety loop.
-
Learn How to Build Friendships: Creating friends is an art. But here's the catch: ANYONE can learn this art if they are open and willing to learn! Teens can explore different strategies for friendship building and keeping friends.
-
Experience Feeling Included and Accepted- Does your teen feel like she doesn't belong? This group will help her realize she is not alone on this journey. Through this group, she will build self-esteem and a feeling of belonging.
Group Details:
Duration: Each Group session will be 75 minutes of skill-building, exercises, and exposure to the things that scare them the most.
Curriculum: This is a 12-week program that will go over what anxiety is, how it behaves, how we avoid things we are scared of, and how to get out of the anxiety loop! Teens will learn to accept their emotions and push through them instead of avoiding what scares them!
Intake Assessment: Before group placement, I conduct a thorough 1-hour intake assessment to ensure this is the best group for your child, her goals, and needs. Intake assessments are $300 for one hour and include social questionnaires, time to meet with you and your child, and allow me to understand your child's needs. If your child is seeing another clinician, I also set up a 15-minute consultation to ensure I know what your child needs.
Group Pricing: This group is $100/session and is paid monthly for 3 months.
A Safe Place for Your Teen to Learn
This group provides a safe environment for your teen to learn the skills they need to succeed in the social world. Not only will they learn step-by-step skills and get exercises weekly to help them stop avoiding, but they will also have the opportunity to practice these skills in groups and during the week.
