Goals and Objectives of Engaged Group Therapy
Self Esteem building through positive peer-based interactions, exploration of self, and community integration.
Why Group Therapy?
This group will aim to introduce young people to the practice of mindfulness, or purposeful, nonjudgmental awareness. Peer based processing Mindfulness + Yoga + Art Therapy. Practice makes perfect: mastering the act of focusing on the present moment in a nonjudgmental way. Doing so gives us an awareness of our thoughts, feelings, sensations and surroundings. Rather than dwelling on the past or worrying about the future, practicing mindfulness allows us to relax into our lives.
Task Model
- Engaged Group Therapy is not sitting in a circle and talking for an entire session
