Breathe In Breathe Out – Group for Teens (13-17 years)
“Mindfulness means paying attention in a particular way: on purpose, in the present moment, and nonjudgmentally. This kind of attention nurtures greater awareness, clarity, and acceptance of present-moment reality. It wakes us up to the fact that our lives unfold only in moments.” – Jon Kabat-Zinn
Mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) is an 8-week, evidence-based program that will empower youth to take control of their well-being, increase their confidence and live a fuller life. At the conclusion of this program, youth will be able to learn, practice and share strategies that can reduce stress and improve their mental health and overall well-being.

TRIPLE P FAMILY TRANSITIONS GROUP
“Family Transitions Triple P is a positive parenting program that helps you protect your child from the impact of divorce or separation.
Over five weeks, in small group sessions with a Family Transitions provider, you will explore everything from stress and anger management, to how to communicate better with your ex-partner.
Your Family Transitions Triple P provider will give you new ideas about managing the day-to-day struggles and ongoing trauma of your situation. It is not a mediation program, so you attend without your ex-partner”.
