      Group and Family Therapy

      Austin adolescents enjoy many delightful traditions such as swimming in Barton Springs pool and listening to live music, yet most would probably agree that adolescence is also a time filled with stress. If you're the parent of a teenager, you're familiar with the pressure your teen feels to make good grades, excel in extracurricular activities, and be accepted by his or her peers””not to mention doing chores at home and perhaps working a part-time job. If you feel your teenager needs support in facing such demands, you might consider enlisting the help of a psychotherapist who offers adolescents individual, group, or family therapy.

      In Austin, Tx psychotherapists provide a safe, secure place for adolescents to learn about themselves and to make changes to improve their lives. Most adolescents are referred to therapy because of emotional difficulties or problems in their relationships. During therapy sessions teenagers learn how to identify and regulate their emotions, improve relationships, and develop skills for handling conflicts and solving problems.

      Adolescents: Group Therapy

      The focus in group therapy may be psychotherapeutic or psychoeducational. Psychotherapeutic groups are small groups in which participants are encouraged to speak honestly in discussions guided by one or two therapists. Psychoeducational groups are focused on a certain topic such as substance abuse.

      Group therapy for adolescents takes advantage of teenagers' need to connect with their peers. It offers a safe environment in which they can discuss issues ranging from grades and social skills to sexuality and peer pressure with others who share similar concerns. In a group session, teenagers listen to others express their thoughts and describe their behaviors and voice their own opinions and ideas. This exchange is a strong motivator for them to make changes that further their developing identity and sense of themselves.
