Calm & Confident: Emotional Skills Group for Middle School Success
Helping Middle Schoolers Control Their Emotions
Do you feel like you’re walking on eggshells, never knowing what mood your middle-schooler will be in?
Does every small disagreement with your child seem to turn into a big battle?
Are you exhausted from trying to calm your middle-schooler down after meltdowns or outbursts?
Do you fear you will ask the wrong question and set your child off?
You’re not alone. Many parents feel like they’re “back in toddler years” when it comes to their child’s emotions. That’s why we created Calm & Confident: Emotional Skills Group for Middle School Success - a supportive, engaging program where middle-schoolers learn how to handle big feelings in healthier ways.
What is the Calm & Confident group?
Our Calm & Confident group is a 6-week, therapist-led program designed to help students in grades 6-8 understand, express, and manage their emotions more effectively.
How is it going to work?
Through interactive games, guided discussions, and mindfulness-based activities, students will learn essential self-regulation tools that they can apply in school, friendships, and family life. Your child will build skills in naming emotions, grounding techniques, breathing exercises, and using the Zones of Regulation framework. Each session offers a supportive space to practice healthy coping strategies and build confidence—all while connecting with peers in a small, nurturing group.
Who is this for?
Who is this for? Whether your child is struggling with big feelings, stress, or just needs help developing better emotional awareness, this group is designed to meet them where they are and help them grow.
When does the group run?
Meets weekly on Tuesday evenings, 7–8 pm, with ongoing groups forming. Limited spots are available. A brief intake call is required before registration.
Give your middle schooler the gift of emotional confidence and resilience. We’re here to walk alongside them—and you—every step of the way.
How Much Does It Cost?
The full 6-week group program is $270 (just $45 per session).
This small investment gives your child lifelong tools to manage emotions, reduce stress, and build healthier relationships — skills that can make home and school life calmer for everyone.
Because each child’s spot is reserved for the entire program, the full fee is required even if a session is missed.
