Stress-Less Teen Therapy Group

Program Design

Using principles from Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), the purpose of this group is to help teens become more psychologically healthy by learning positive coping strategies, as well as skills needed to regulate their behavior and emotions. Through hands-on activities, guided discussion, and audiovisual aids, teens will put skills into practice as they are introduced.

Group Goals

Over 4 sessions, this therapy program will offer a small group of adolescents a safe, supportive space to work on strategies to create distance from unhelpful thoughts and reduce overactive stress responses in order to feel better, have better interpersonal relationships, and increase resilience.

With support from the Blanche & Irving Laurie Foundation, meetings will be held on Monday evenings in Somerville.
