The Confidence Project
Where teen girls learn to ditch body shame and build unshakable self-worth.
Does your daughter struggle with how she sees herself?
She’s not alone, and she doesn’t have to go through it alone, either.
In a world of constant filters, comparison, and pressure to be perfect, so many teen girls quietly battle negative body image and low self-esteem.
The Confidence Project is an 8-week therapy group designed to help high school girls reclaim their confidence, challenge self-criticism, and develop a healthier relationship with their body, and themselves.
This group offers a safe, welcoming space to:
Break free from toxic beauty standards
Learn tools to reduce comparison and quiet the inner critic
Build body neutrality and self-compassion
Connect with others who “get it” and are working toward the same goals
About the group
Girls entering 10th through 12th grade who are ready to:
Stop picking themselves apart
Find a more peaceful mindset
Make friendships that support growth, not judgment
Each session is led by experienced therapists who truly understand teen girls.
No previous therapy experience is needed: just a willingness to show up and explore what confidence can look like from the inside out.
