Group Therapy 

At Impressions-Therapy, PLLC, we offer small, supportive therapy groups for children and teens who are experiencing anxiety, emotional overwhelm, or difficulty managing big feelings. These structured groups help participants build confidence, develop healthy coping skills, and feel more in control of their emotions in a safe and supportive environment.

​

Childhood Anxiety & Emotional Regulation Therapy Group

Ages 8–12

​

Helping children understand their feelings, manage anxiety, and build confidence in handling big emotions.

This psychotherapy group supports children who experience anxiety, emotional overwhelm, or difficulty managing big feelings. In a structured and supportive environment, children learn how their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are connected while developing practical tools to cope with everyday stressors.

​

Using developmentally appropriate and evidence-based approaches, including cognitive-behavioral and DBT-informed strategies, children build emotional awareness, strengthen coping skills, and increase confidence in navigating challenges at home, school, and in social settings.

​

Participants will work on:

• Understanding anxiety and emotional responses
• Learning skills to calm the body and mind
• Managing worry and overwhelming thoughts
• Building confidence and problem-solving skills
• Improving social and communication skills

​

This group is ideal for children experiencing frequent worries, emotional outbursts, school-related anxiety, or difficulty coping with stress.

​​

Adolescent Anxiety & Emotional Regulation Therapy Group

Ages 13–17

​

Helping teens manage anxiety, regulate emotions, and build confidence using DBT-informed skills.

This psychotherapy group supports adolescents who experience anxiety, emotional reactivity, or difficulty managing stress and relationships. Teens learn how to better understand their emotions, reduce overwhelm, and respond to challenges in more effective and healthy ways.

The group incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) along with other evidence-based approaches to help adolescents develop practical skills for managing intense emotions and navigating daily stressors.

​

Participants will work on:

• Emotional regulation and understanding intense feelings
• Distress tolerance skills for overwhelming situations
• Mindfulness and increasing self-awareness
• Improving communication and relationships
• Managing anxiety and stress more effectively

​
