This group is meant to provide the opportunity for connection to any youth in need. The cost is $50 per session. Those who cannot afford to pay are still encouraged to reach out.

 

Is there a commitment?

 

No, there is no commitment! You can attend a session and if you decide it is not for you, there is no obligation to continue to attend.

 

Do you have to be a current client at Balanced Wellness Therapy?

 

No, you do not have to be a current or former client at Balanced Wellness. This group is open to all youth ages 13-17 regardless of whether or not they attend therapy with us.

 

Do you have to contribute during the group?

 

Although you are encouraged to contribute, the host will never force you to speak. If you have anxiety around participation, contact us and we will ensure that accommodations are made that suit your comfortability.

 

Is there connection outside of the group?

 

There is a group discord channel that is monitored by the host where the link to the group meeting is posted each week. Group members are more than welcome to build connections together outside of the group, but this is not monitored by Balanced Wellness Therapy.​
