Building Confidence and Improving Self-Esteem
Promoting healthy self-esteem is emphasized in this group to help members feel positive regard for themselves, accept weaknesses, celebrate strengths, and believe they are as valuable and important as others.
Today’s youth often struggle with feeling confident, capable, worthy and able to assert themselves, and embrace their evolving identity. Powerful social messages fuel self-talk that often results in adolescents comparing themselves to others and feeling that they do not measure up to expectations. This group focuses on empowering and embracing a positive, strong sense of self.
