Our specialized groups, camps, and workshops offer unique opportunities for children, teens, parents, and professionals to develop skills, build connections, and find support beyond traditional therapy.

  • Are you looking for more than just traditional therapy for your child or teen?
  • Do you need additional support as a parent or professional?
  • Is your child feeling isolated and overwhelmed by their emotions?
  • Are you seeking ways to help your child develop social skills and connections?
  • Do you need expert advice and strategies for addressing specific challenges with your child?

Groups and Camps: What They Entail and Their Importance

At Wellspring, we offer a range of groups and camps designed to provide additional support beyond individual therapy. These programs are structured to help children, teens, adults, parents, and professionals develop skills, build connections, and find support in a community setting.

Groups and Camps

For Children and Teens: Difficult emotions can overwhelm children and teens, leading them to feel isolated. Our groups offer a supportive environment where young people can come together to learn new skills and connect with peers facing similar challenges. These groups help normalize their experiences and make them feel more comfortable opening up about their feelings. Topics may include coping with anxiety, preparing for college transitions, and boys’ empowerment. Participation in these groups can complement your child’s individual therapy, enhancing their overall therapeutic experience.

Workshops: We provide workshops on relevant topics to parents and professionals, offering valuable skills and tools to support children better. Workshops may cover subjects like positive parenting practices, managing childhood anxiety, top behavioral strategies, and preparing for transitions such as starting kindergarten. These sessions are tailored to address issues that most affect families in Marin, helping parents and professionals feel more equipped to assist children in their care.

Consultations: In addition to our groups and workshops, our therapists are available for consultation services in various settings, including at home or your child’s school. Our diverse, experienced, and licensed therapists can offer personalized advice and strategies to parents and professionals, ensuring each child’s unique needs are met. We collaborate closely with community professionals, including pediatricians, psychiatrists, occupational therapists, and school counselors, to provide comprehensive support across all environments.
