Empowerment Groups (ages 8 - 22):
Our Girl Power and Grit Groups offer girls and teens a therapeutic space to meet with peers, give and gain support, and engage in creative activities while developing skills for fostering mindfulness, resilience, zest and authenticity. Some of our Grit groups include: Girls & Grit; Compassion & Grit (for those with anxiety); Wellness Grit (for those with chronic pain); Rainbow Grit (for LGBTQIA+ youth). Our ACT (acceptance and commitment therapy) groups are another type of empowerment group. These are time-limited and empower young women by helping them change their relationship with anxiety, depression and other challenges like procrastination.
