Building Healthy Self-Esteem
Building Healthy Self-Esteem is a 5-week skill-building group designed to help teens develop a stronger, more confident sense of self. Teens will learn how self-esteem develops, how to recognize and challenge negative self-talk, and how to identify their unique strengths and values. Through interactive activities and guided practice, participants build practical, age-appropriate skills for increasing confidence, speaking up for themselves, and navigating friendships and school with greater self-assurance. This group focuses on real tools that feel supportive, and skips the cringey “just be positive” approach.
