Group therapy in Maquoketa? For teens?
I am excited to announce my plans to start a group at the high school that is geared toward teens who are looking to improve their social skills and problem solving skills, utilize their unique strengths (like creativity, unique ideas, etc.), and develop comfort in working with others/belonging to a group.
Appropriate clients would include teens struggling with social anxiety, bullying, and working with others. This group would be appropriate for teens navigating neurodivergent challenges but is not exclusive to that group. It will require some basic reading and math, though I am happy to help in those areas if it is a struggle.
I will be applying Alderian play therapy concepts to a well known role playing game, Dungeons and Dragons. The group members will encounter monsters of many varieties as they work together to achieve a unified goal. Each monster encounter will involve working together to strategies and take full advantage of each team members unique strengths.
Space is limited. I am only looking to take 3-4 Maquoketa High School students into this group. Please shoot me a text message or give me a call at 563-249-8007 if you are interested in getting your teen into this group or if you have questions about the group.
