Life Transition Group

  • Young Adult Life Transition Group (Ages 18-29)
    Time: This Group Meets Virtually on Wednesdays from 10:00AM-10:45AM
    Facilitator: Dr. Joe Dilley  

    The young adult life transition group focuses on developing answers to the following types of life questions: What classes should I take to get into the career I really want? and Should I live at home to save money? In essence: Where am I going and who's going with me? These are the kinds of questions we are wise to ask as we transition out of high school and through our twenties. The group affords the opportunity to do so in a supportive atmosphere with like-minded others. 

Anxiety Groups

 

  • Teen Girls' Stress Management, Anxiety & Social Skills Group (13-18 year olds) 
    Time: Group Reforming (TBD)
    Facilitator: Dr. Carrie Dilley 

    The Teen Girls' Stress Management, Anxiety, and Social Skills Group is a group for girls ranging in age from 13-18. The members in this group are working on advanced social skills related to navigating the complexities of friendships/relationships with others, navigating bullying, social acceptance of self and others, issues related to puberty, and developing an improved awareness of their reactions toward peers. During each group session, students also learn, share, and practice coping strategies to reduce their stress and anxiety. Students have the opportunity to practice skills learned in group and provide support for one another. Group Topics Include: Practicing relaxation and mindfulness strategies, understanding how anxiety is manifested in the body, learning how thoughts and emotions are connected, helping students to change their negative thought patterns, and improving self-esteem and self-efficacy. The members of this group have individualized and larger group goals that promote their social growth both in and outside of the group setting.
