Teen Reset: Learning to manage stress & overwhelm

Ages 14-18

What to Expect

Teen Reset is a calm, supportive, skills-focused group designed to help teens better understand stress and learn practical tools they can use in everyday life. Each session builds on the next, giving teens skills they can continue using long after the series ends.

Teens are never required to share and are always welcome to participate at their own comfort level.

Part 1: Understanding Stress

In the first session, teens will learn what stress actually is and how it shows up in the body and mind. Many teens experience stress without realizing what’s happening or why they feel on edge, overwhelmed, or exhausted.

This session focuses on:

  • Understanding how stress affects emotions, thoughts, and the body

  • Recognizing personal stress signals and patterns

  • Normalizing stress as a common experience, not a weakness

Teens will leave with greater awareness of their own stress responses and a foundation for using the skills taught in future sessions.

Part 2: Calming the Nervous System

This session focuses on practical calming tools teens can use in real-life situations, at school, before tests, during sports, or when emotions feel intense.

This session includes:

  • Simple breathing and grounding techniques

  • Learning how to calm the body when stress spikes

  • Practicing tools that help the nervous system reset

The goal is to help teens feel more in control when stress feels overwhelming and to show them that calm is something they can practice.

Part 3: Managing Overthinking & Pressure

Many teens struggle with overthinking, perfectionism, and pressure to perform. This session helps teens learn how to reduce mental overload and manage unhelpful thought patterns.

This session focuses on:

  • Identifying common sources of pressure and overthinking

  • Learning how to “unload” mental stress

  • Practicing simple strategies to shift perspective and reduce self-pressure

Teens will learn that they don’t have to believe every thought they have, and that doing their best does not mean being perfect.

Part 4: Stress Plans & Healthy Boundaries

The final session helps teens put everything together into a personal stress reset plan they can continue using on their own.

This session includes:

  • Identifying early signs of stress and burnout

  • Creating a personalized set of coping tools

  • Learning the importance of healthy boundaries with school, activities, and relationships

Teens will leave with a clear plan for managing stress moving forward and the confidence that they have tools they can rely on.
