Is your teenager struggling with body image, confidence, self-esteem? Do you notice them checking the mirror frequently, taking lots of photos, comparing themselves to others or talking negatively about their appearance?
Body Image issues have increased with the rapid rise of social media and many teens feel like it’s normal.
If your teen is struggling, but maybe not ready or not in need of individual therapy, an educational peer group can be a great way to teach them skills without the intense financial and time commitment of 1-1 therapy.
