Teen & Young Adult Summer Groups
Summer can bring a mix of freedom and uncertainty—more unstructured time, shifting routines, and social pressures that don’t take a break. Our summer groups are designed to offer a supportive space where teens and young adults can stay connected, build skills, and feel understood during this transition.
At Juniper & Jade Psychotherapy, we believe growth happens in connection. These groups provide a safe, therapist-led environment where participants can explore their experiences, strengthen relationships, and build confidence in themselves.
What Participants Can Expect
Our summer groups create space for:
- Meaningful Peer Connection: Build authentic relationships with others navigating similar challenges
- Emotional Awareness & Expression: Learn how to identify, understand, and communicate emotions more effectively
- Improved Communication Skills: Practice expressing needs, setting boundaries, and navigating conflict
- Stronger Sense of Self: Clarify personal values, identity, and goals
- Guidance & Support: Receive thoughtful input from clinicians in a supportive, nonjudgmental setting
- Real-Life Skill Building: Apply tools for managing stress, relationships, and decision-making
Group Structure
- Groups are organized by age to support developmentally appropriate conversations
- Led by therapists specializing in adolescent and young adult mental health
- Designed to balance structured guidance with open discussion
- Offered as a summer series to provide continuity and deeper connection over time
Who These Groups Are For
These groups may be a good fit for teens and young adults who:
- Feel isolated, anxious, or unsure in social situations
- Struggle with communication or peer relationships
- Experience overwhelm, low motivation, or emotional ups and downs
- Are navigating transitions (school changes, independence, identity development)
- Would benefit from connection, structure, and support over the summer
Why Summer Groups Matter
Without the built-in structure of the school year, challenges can feel more intense or harder to navigate alone. Summer groups offer consistency, connection, and a place to continue growing—so participants return to the fall feeling more grounded and confident.
