Group therapy provides support and offers hope in a safe and calm environment.
Redefine and strengthen the mother/daughter relationship during the daughter's adolescent years. Adolescence is a confusing time for mothers and daughters as the daughter begins to pull away from her mother. The transition from dependence upon parents to reliance on "self" is a normal stage of adolescent development. As daughters struggle to differentiate themselves and find their independence, it seems as if they push their mothers away even further. However, daughters need their mothers even more during adolescence, just in a different way! Learn ways to communicate, strengthen the mother/daughter bond, and stay connected during this transition time.
A therapeutic intervention combining the principles of narrative therapy with the art of scrapbooking. Explore your thoughts and feelings, relationships, your goals and dreams, struggles, challenges, and triumphs. Tell your story through pictures and journaling. A creative outlet for personal growth, scrapbooking helps you stop, reminisce, reflect, and be more mindful of what is personal and meaningful to you.
Scrapbook therapy is for everyone! Children and teens can use scrapbooking as an activity to develop self-esteem and explore their strengths. People experiencing grief or loss can process their emotions and honor their loved ones with a memory album. Couples can work through marital issues by sharing their story as they reflect on their journey together through the years. Scrapbooking is also therapeutic for Alzheimer's patients. Memories preserved in an album act as a bridge between the patient and his/her family offering a way for families to reconnect.
Everyone is susceptible to stress at some point in their life. Yes stress is inevitable, but it can be managed! Learn to identify your stressors, effective coping skills, time-management skills, boundary setting, relaxation techniques, and the importance of practicing self-care.
