Virtual Summer Anxiety Group for Kids

Ages 9-11 | July 13-17 | 10:00-11:15

Location: Zoom

Help your child build confidence, manage worries, and practice coping skills this summer in a small, supportive virtual group.

About the Group

This week-long group is designed for children ages 9–11 (Grades 3–5) who experience worries or anxiety. In a small group of 4–6 children, participants will:

  • Increase awareness of their anxiety and learn ways to manage it.

  • Engage in fun, interactive activities that build confidence

  • Connect with peers in a safe, supportive environment

  • Receive guidance from a Certified Play Therapist

Group Details:

  • Dates: July 13–17, 2026

  • Time: 10:00–11:15 am daily (Zoom)

  • Fee: $130/session.

    • Over the week, your child receives over 6 hours of therapist-led support, at a per-session rate significantly lower than individual therapy. Each family also receives a free follow-up parent consultation to review progress and provide guidance for continued support at home.

    • Services are provided by a Registered Psychotherapist and are often covered under extended health benefits; receipts will be provided for reimbursement. If helpful, a pre-approval letter can be provided so you can confirm coverage with your provider before registering.

  • Includes:

    • Brief intake call to review fit

    • 5 interactive 75-minute sessions

    • Free follow-up parent call

💡 Spaces are limited! Even if you can’t make this session, register your interest—another group may be scheduled depending on demand.

Sometimes the most powerful part of therapy is realizing you’re not alone.

In a small group setting, children and parents alike can connect with others who truly get it — and find encouragement, support, and relief in knowing they're in it together.

Groups and Workshops at Courageous Counselling are designed to:

  • Help kids practice emotional and social skills in a fun, supportive setting

  • Give parents tools and community to feel less isolated and more empowered

  • Provide practical strategies you can use right away

Groups are kept intentionally small for personal attention, offered virtually for convenience, and created based on what families need most.
