Is your teen spending more and more time alone—or telling you they just don’t connect with anyone anymore?

You’re not imagining it. We’re still seeing the ripple effects of the pandemic on teens’ social and emotional development. 😔

If your teen is struggling to make or keep friendships, avoids social settings, or just seems down after being with peers, they might be facing something deeper than “normal teenage stuff.” The good news? There’s help—and hope.

💬 Group therapy gives teens a chance to connect, learn real social skills, and realize they’re not alone in what they’re feeling. Whether your teen is navigating friendship drama, self-esteem dips, or full-blown social anxiety, they deserve support that feels safe and affirming.

Tap through the slides to learn more about what to look for—and how group therapy can be a game-changer. 💛

From fear of rejection to navigating constant microaggressions, many LGBTQIA+ youth carry invisible stress every single day.

And it shows up in ways that often go unnoticed: panic attacks, isolation, sleepless nights, and perfectionism just to feel “safe.”

The good news? You don’t have to be a mental health professional to make a difference.

You just need to be willing to listen, learn, and create safe spaces. 🏳️‍🌈💬

Swipe through this carousel to learn how to show up with care, respect, and affirming support. 💖

👇 Tell us in the comments: What’s one way you’re showing up for the LGBTQIA+ youth in your life?

I know I’ve been talking a lot about process groups but let’s talk for a minute about good ole fashioned CBT groups.

When a group is virtual, using Google Jamboard (see my Jamboard highlight if you don’t know what this is!) can be a really fun way to do psychoeducation interactively.

What I’ve done in these groups is post 3 pages - one for thoughts, one for feelings, and one for behaviors. And one by one we go through the pages and I ask my group members to put up pictures symbolizing examples of each.

After all the pictures are up, we talk about each one, who experiences what, and about how our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are all connected.

This sets the stage for some great CBT work, especially in our younger groups.

January 23rd is Maternal Health Awareness Day! This important day of awareness was actually created in 2017 right here in New Jersey and adopted by the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ACOG) to raise awareness and provide education to both health care providers and families about maternal health. 

At Collaborative Minds Psychotherapy, we proudly advocate for Maternal Mental Health and offer specialized Maternal Mental Health Services with Gabrielle Moskovitz, LSW. Contact us today to schedule a free 15-minute intake call and learn more!

My own group therapist often asks this question and I find it so interesting to think about not only what’s alive within myself, but what’s alive in the group!

In order to make this prompt more accessible to a virtual teen group, I pull up a Jamboard and I ask them the same question but have them write their responses on sticky notes on the Jamboard which always brings up some good, important, and intense conversations!

Want to refer a teen to one of our groups? Reach out to us to set up a time to talk more about how we could help your teen through the power of group therapy!!

Looking forward to another year of supporting teens in having stronger communication skills with family and friends, working on their overall stress levels both at school and at home, and empowering teens to love and accept themselves more fully ✨
