Children and adolescents can feel empowered when they face the stress of life.

By providing developmentally appropriate education, exploring misconceptions, emotions, and ideas, and engaging in therapeutic activities, kids and youth are given a voice resulting in increased self-confidence, self-awareness, and self-esteem.
