One of our specialties is helping the struggling teen and their family members through the multi-issued period of adolescence. We offer a teen group and a parent support group. We offer consultation, individual therapy, parenting sessions, and family therapy.
We value family connection and relationship/communication skills. We find it much more effective to work with the family system than to work with only the parents or only the teen.
For the motivated teenager - the focus is on peer support, emotion regulation skills, interpersonal
effectiveness skills, and DBT and CBT skills. This is also a safe place for teen girls* 15-18 to explore
depression or anxiety, conflicts and dilemmas, learn relationship skills to enhance relationships with
siblings, peers and parents, come out of isolation into social well-being, etc.
Mondays 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm (in-person)

This group has been designed for the parents of the girls attending the weekly teen group, and for parents
of teen boys who are in individual therapy at VWC. A primary goal is relationship enhancement with their
teen(s), effective communication, and effective parenting strategies and parent well-being for the very
challenging parenting of adolescents in our modern world.
