Online Teen Therapy
in Claifornia

All Grouport teen therapy sessions are conducted entirely online via secure, HIPAA-compliant video chat, providing privacy and convenience. Access depends on how you enroll:

🔹 Email Link Access – If you are not using the member portal, a unique video link will be sent to your email for each session. You will also receive a 24-hour reminder email to ensure you join on time.

🔹 Member Portal Access – If your account uses the member portal, sessions occur directly within the portal except for your initial consultation. A confirmation email provides your first consultation link, and subsequent weekly sessions are accessed by logging into your portal at the scheduled time.

If circumstances arise that require you to reschedule an individual teen therapy appointment, you can coordinate directly with your assigned therapist as well as our care team to select a new time slot that works for you during the same week. Providing notice in advance allows our team to accommodate your request smoothly.

✅ Occasional rescheduling is perfectly acceptable, though we suggest limiting changes to maintain consistency and continuity in your therapeutic progress.

✅ If you need to modify a recurring weekly session, our team will work with you to select a new time that fits seamlessly into your schedule.

Individual teen therapy sessions typically last forty-five minutes, allowing ample time for meaningful discussion and reflection. Group therapy sessions are structured for sixty minutes, giving participants the opportunity to interact, share experiences, and engage in guided exercises.

Online teen therapy is intended to support adolescents in navigating the distinctive emotional, social, and developmental challenges that arise during teenage years. It provides a secure and private environment where teens can express themselves openly without fear of judgment, develop coping strategies, and receive guidance from licensed mental health professionals.

This type of therapy is particularly beneficial for teens who are:.

• Struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, or mood swings
• Navigating friendships, peer pressure, or social anxiety
• Dealing with school-related stress, perfectionism, or academic burnout
• Coping with family conflict, divorce, or major life changes
• Working through trauma, grief, or loss
• Managing diagnoses such as  BPD, Bipolar, OCD, PTSD, ADHD
• Experiencing low self-esteem, body image concerns, or identity confusion
• Engaging in risky behaviors, self-harm, or substance use
• Needing support with emotional regulation, communication, or confidence
  ‍

For many adolescents, a holistic approach to mental health can be extremely effective, which is why combining online individual therapy with online group therapy often yields the best outcomes. Individual sessions offer one-on-one attention where teens can receive tailored guidance and develop personal coping strategies. At the same time, group sessions provide opportunities to connect with peers who are experiencing similar challenges, fostering social support, reducing feelings of isolation, and creating a sense of shared understanding.

Whether a teen is managing a specific concern or simply needs a supportive environment to express their thoughts and feelings, online therapy offers a safe, convenient, and empowering space to receive the care they need.

Grouport’s virtual Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) delivers structured, therapist-guided mental health care entirely online, offering participants a higher level of support than traditional weekly therapy without requiring inpatient hospitalization. Separate IOP tracks for adults and teens ensure that each participant receives age-appropriate care tailored to their developmental stage and individual needs.

Here’s how it works:

• Weekly Schedule: Participants attend nine group therapy sessions per week along with one individual therapy session per week, all conducted via secure, HIPAA-compliant video chat.
• Tailored Treatment: Care plans are individualized based on each participant’s specific needs. For example, those experiencing OCD will receive Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), while those with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) focus on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).
• Expert-Led & Evidence-Based: All sessions are led by licensed therapists using evidence-based interventions including DBT, CBT, and ERP where clinically relevant.
• Skill Building + Peer Support: Sessions integrate structured skill-building exercises with opportunities for peer connection, fostering emotional growth, accountability, and shared healing experiences.
• Flexible Access: Participants can choose any nine group sessions during the week that suit their schedule. Both daytime and evening sessions are available, and the weekly individual therapy session is scheduled at a convenient time.
• Ongoing Guidance: A care coordinator works with participants to ensure proper group and therapist matching and can adjust plans as needed over time.

Grouport’s virtual IOP is ideal for individuals experiencing intense symptoms or needing a more comprehensive level of care while maintaining flexibility to continue daily routines from home.

Grouport’s virtual Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is specifically designed for both adults and teens who require a level of support beyond what traditional weekly therapy sessions can provide. Many of our participants have recently transitioned from a higher level of care, such as inpatient treatment, residential programs, or hospital stays, and are seeking more frequent, structured guidance to manage serious mental health conditions or life-altering stressors.

Unlike standard outpatient therapy, which generally involves just one session per week, Grouport’s IOP offers multiple sessions throughout the week, allowing for deeper, more consistent therapeutic intervention. Each participant attends nine group therapy sessions as well as one individual therapy session per week, all conducted securely via video chat to ensure both safety and privacy.

The treatment plan is highly personalized and tailored to each participant’s specific needs. For example, a client experiencing obsessive-compulsive disorder may receive Exposure and Response Prevention therapy, while a participant navigating borderline personality disorder may focus on Dialectical Behavior Therapy strategies. Our licensed therapists utilize a wide range of evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, DBT, ERP, and mindfulness-based techniques, all applied based on clinical relevance to the participant’s symptoms and overall treatment goals.

If you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or in need of more intensive care but wish to continue managing your daily life, Grouport’s virtual IOP provides expert-led, accessible, and flexible support from the comfort of your own home, allowing you to engage in intensive treatment without disrupting your routine.

Yes, everything you discuss in therapy is strictly confidential. All Grouport therapists are licensed professionals and adhere to the same ethical standards and legal requirements for confidentiality as in-person clinicians. This ensures that sessions remain private and that your personal disclosures are not shared with anyone else.

The only exceptions are extremely rare and legally mandated situations, such as if a participant expresses an imminent risk of harm to themselves or others. In these specific circumstances, the therapist is required to notify the appropriate authorities to ensure safety. Outside of these rare cases, nothing shared during therapy sessions is disclosed without explicit consent. If any questions or concerns about privacy or confidentiality arise, your therapist will provide a thorough explanation of their legal and ethical responsibilities at the start of care to ensure you feel fully informed and comfortable.
