At EMERGE, we believe in the power of groups to to facilitate social and emotional learning growth and learning. Groups reduce stigma and are a safe place to land when life gets hard. Over time, group members become a trusted resource to turn to for guidance and support.
Teen Relational Groups
for 7th-9th & 10th-12th grades
Open-ended, relational therapy groups to help members connect with each other and communicate more honestly. As trust grows, members develop a space where they can be themselves and relate more authentically. This leads to a stronger sense of identity, greater social confidence and an increased feeling of belonging in the world, which can have positive effects on many areas of life. Groups have 5-7 members and are separated into 7th-9th and 10th-12th grades. Groups meet for one hour per week and cost $50. Reduced fees are available.
