Teen years are already filled with change, identity development, emotional growth, and social pressures. When blended family dynamics, divorce, remarriage, co-parenting, or shifting family roles are added to the mix, many teens carry emotions they rarely have space to fully process.

This 4-week summer therapy group creates that space. Led by Dr. Latasha D. McFarland, EdD, MS, LPC, Certified Imago Relationship Therapist, this group helps teens ages 13–17 navigate the emotional complexities of blended family life while building confidence, communication skills, emotional regulation, and healthy relationship patterns.

Through guided conversations, creative expression, interactive activities, journaling, mindfulness, and peer connection, teens will explore topics such as identity, loyalty conflicts, sibling and step-sibling relationships, boundaries, trust, communication, stress management, and coping with transitions between households.

Teens will learn how to express themselves in healthy ways, strengthen self-esteem, manage difficult emotions, and build tools for healthier relationships both inside and outside of the family system. Most importantly, they will discover they are not alone in their experiences.

This group integrates elements of Imago-informed relationship work, CBT, mindfulness practices, attachment-based approaches, and social-emotional learning to support teens in developing resilience, emotional safety, and stronger connections.

Designed to feel supportive, relatable, and engaging, this group offers teens a judgment-free environment where healing, growth, and authentic connection can happen.

Enrollment is limited to maintain a safe and supportive group experience
