A creative group for middle school girls focused on building self-awareness, navigating friendships and social challenges, and growing confidence through hands-on projects and real conversations.

In this group, we focus on helping girls better understand themselves—how they think, how they react, and what they actually need in different situations. From there, we work on how to handle real-life social challenges like changing friendships, miscommunication, feeling left out, or dealing with “drama” in a way that feels more grounded and in control.

Each session includes a mix of creative, hands-on projects and guided conversations. This allows girls to open up more naturally while also giving them something to do with their hands, which helps take the pressure off and makes the experience feel more comfortable.

Throughout the group, we build skills like:

• understanding thoughts, feelings, and reactions

• managing emotions in the moment

• navigating friendships and social situations

• making decisions that feel aligned with who they are

• building confidence through action (not just talking about it)

These skills are practiced in real time within a small group setting, so girls can try things out, reflect, and build confidence with support.
