Groups for Children and Teenagers
Group therapy for children and teens at Root and Blossom offers a unique and dynamic environment where young individuals can navigate their emotions, behaviors, and social skills within a supportive peer setting. Our specialized approach focuses on play and expressive arts-based groups, allowing participants to express themselves creatively and explore personal issues in a less conventional, more engaging way.

"Together We Grow" Play Therapy Group
3rd-5th Grade Boys*
Thursdays 3:30-4:14
September 14th-November 9th (No group on 10/17)
Our Together We Grow Play Therapy Group is designed specifically for rising 3rd-5th Grade boys. Group play therapy is a therapeutic approach that harnesses the power of play to help children express their thoughts and emotions, build social skills, and work through challenges in a supportive group setting. Through creative activities, games, and interactions with peers, children learn to communicate, collaborate, and develop a deeper understanding of themselves and others. Group play therapy provides a safe space for children to explore their feelings, build resilience, and foster personal growth while benefiting from the shared experiences and connections within the group.
What to Expect:
Development of Healthy Coping Skills: Play is the language of children, and in our group, play becomes a powerful tool for self-expression and growth. Children will learn to express their feelings, build resilience, and develop healthy coping strategies.
Emotional Exploration: Children will be guided to explore their emotions in a safe and nonjudgmental space. Through play therapy techniques, children gain insights into their feelings and learn to communicate them effectively.
Social Skills Development: Group dynamics provide a natural setting for children to practice essential social skills such as sharing, communication, and cooperation.
Together We Grow meets on Thursdays at 3:30 from starting September 14th and running through November 9th. Cost per each group session is $60. For children not currently receiving therapy with Root and Blossom, there is a complimentary 30 minute parent intake session required to discuss the current functioning and goals for each child. Together We Grow is facilitated by Rachel Salmons, LPC.
