Are you a teen or the parent of a teen who struggles with low self-esteem or is constantly comparing herself to others?
The rate of young girls and teens who report feeling dissatisfied with their bodies and low self-esteem has increased with the rise of social media and exposure to mainstream media images of an ideal kind of beauty.
Over 90% of girls are dissatisfied with their bodies. - Source: dosomething.org
This group is designed for young girls to build strategies and skills to recognize the various (and some perceived) stressors within their lives that impact their perceptions of their self-esteem and overall confidence.
During this 6-week virtual group program, the topics each week build on one another to first create awareness around the thoughts and emotions that affect their self-esteem and self-worth. We work on uncovering the negative thought-patterns and stories that exist about ourselves and what coping skills help to rewrite those stories. The goal is to create awareness, build skills, and ultimately shift their perceptions and start viewing themselves as capable, worthy of love and belonging.
Participants will be guided through various activities and discussions which allow them a safe and non-judgmental space to share their experiences, cultivate healthy connections with others and give them the opportunity to encourage and empower one another. All skills are founded in science but are taught in a way that the girls can understand them and their impact easily.
