Group Therapy for Adolescents (ages 13-18)

2006-09-08T21:00:00.000-07:00

A Clinical Counselor Marina Fleitman is inviting you or someone you know to participate in group therapy for adolescents (ages 13-18). If an adolescent experiences:

• Difficulties with parental and peer pressure, teen issues,
• Problems communicating their needs at home, in school and social surroundings,
• Inability to find a middle ground with people around them,
• Struggling to maintain balanced relationship with parents and siblings as a result of miscommunication, mixed messages and
• Lack of coping strategies and communication skills to be used in such relationships,

he or she can greatly benefit from this group.

An additional avenue of the group is a learning process of building a healthy and stable relationship with the opposite sex, which would ultimately lead to an awareness of the important ingredients for the future healthy relationships and creating a well balanced family.

Teens experiencing depressive symptoms, anxiety and/or panicky feelings, aggression and agitation, feelings of not being heard at home, or being neglected by parents or people significant in their life, difficulty adjusting to new situations in life are welcome to join the group.

Many adolescents and their families don't have enough tools that they can use in building an open, productive, loving and sharing relationship that family members need to have. This is why parents are encouraged to participate in one on one or group sessions with the psychotherapist.

If needed, adolescents and their parents are given homework to complete so that they can learn what interventions to use and how to better communicate with each other in a more open and productive way to avoid conflicts, confrontations and temperamental outbursts.

This group offers a very friendly, relaxed, sharing, open and no pressure environment that is a key to success in therapy. It will help adolescents and their families to create new branches of relationships between parents and children, to understand each other better and on a more personal level.

To join the group, please, call the Center of Revitalizing Psychiatry at 201-488-5161.

If you want to join the group but still hesitate and need a personal advice and clarification, you can reach Marina Fleitman via her Email at mfleitman@revitalizingpsychiatry.com.

We are looking forward to seeing you in my group and opening a new page in your life.
