Adolescence is one of the most challenging times in a young person’s life — filled with change, growth, and self-discovery. For teen girls, these years often come with added pressure to “have it all together” while navigating friendships, school, family dynamics, and identity. While individual therapy offers valuable one-on-one support, group therapy can be especially powerful in helping teen girls feel seen, understood, and connected.
One of the most healing aspects of group therapy is realizing you’re not the only one struggling. Teen girls often believe that no one else feels anxious, insecure, or misunderstood — but within a supportive group setting, they quickly learn that others share similar thoughts and feelings. This sense of belonging helps reduce shame and isolation, which are common barriers to healing.
In group therapy, each member brings a unique story and perspective. When girls hear how others handle challenges like anxiety, family conflict, or self-esteem issues, they gain new coping skills and insights they might not have found in individual sessions alone. They also practice empathy, active listening, and giving and receiving feedback — essential life skills that foster emotional maturity and resilience.
For many teen girls, group therapy becomes a safe “practice space” for relationships. It’s where they learn how to set boundaries, express themselves assertively, and build trust. These social and emotional tools extend far beyond the therapy room — helping them navigate friendships, family, and future relationships with more confidence and self-awareness.
Empowerment through community is what I hope to achieve in creating the H.E.R group. This group is designed to empower girls to find their voices, embrace their strengths, and support one another in their personal growth journeys. If your teen daughter could benefit from connection, confidence, and emotional support, we invite her to join our upcoming H.E.R. Group. Together, we create a safe and uplifting community where girls can heal, empower one another, and grow in resilience — one session at a time.
