Sometimes the most powerful insights come when you realize someone else is navigating something similar. Group therapy offers a safe and structured space to connect with others, develop new coping tools, and reflect on your own patterns and relationships in a meaningful way.
At MLB Therapy in Leesburg, VA, our group therapy offerings are small, intentional, and therapist-led. Whether you’re a parent feeling overwhelmed, a teen struggling with identity or friendships, or someone navigating anxiety or depression, you’ll find a space here to be heard, supported, and empowered to create real change.
There’s no doubt, raising a teenager can be difficult — and when your teen is also navigating a mental health diagnosis, it can feel especially complex and isolating. This therapist-led group gives parents a space to connect, reflect, and build tools for everyday parenting.
You’ll gain insight into family dynamics, learn to balance your own needs with your child’s, and explore topics like parenting values, mental health, power struggles, loneliness, and self-care. You’re also welcome to bring other life topics to the group. Sessions are shaped by the group’s needs and guided by supportive facilitation, not rigid curriculum.
Who this is for: Parents of teens who are managing anxiety, depression, or other mental health challenges
Focus areas: Parenting strategies, emotional regulation, family dynamics, boundary setting
This group is for teen girls who feel unsure of where they fit in within their friend groups, families, or even themselves. Early sessions focus on connection and self-reflection, helping participants build trust with one another and a deeper understanding of who they are.
We’ll explore how values and actions align (or don’t), how relationships are shaped, and how teens can take ownership of how they show up in the world. Along the way, we’ll also build emotional regulation and coping skills to support lasting growth.
Who this is for: Teen girls who feel disconnected from themselves or others
Focus areas: Self-worth, social dynamics, identity, healthy relationships, coping tools
When anxiety or depression clouds your thoughts, it can be difficult to see a way forward. This group is designed to help you understand how those internal experiences influence your decisions, relationships, and quality of life — and how to create more clarity and choice.
We use metaphors, mindfulness practices, and reflection to help you explore your emotional landscape and shift from emotional autopilot to values-based living. If you’re ready to feel more grounded and aligned with the life you want to be living, this group is a great place to start!
Who this is for: Adults experiencing anxiety, depression, or feeling stuck in life or relationships
