How it works

1. Find your group
As per the information shared on your signup form, we will place you in a group with others who are in similar situations and who'll get you.
2. Weekly video meetings
Meet your group, guided by a professional facilitator. Everyone in your group is going through a similar situation and is there to share, listen – and feel better.
3. Get nonstop support
Its an amazing space to explore your own thought process and get support and perspective from others. And, you can cancel anytime if you get busy or think there isn't a fit.

Who is it for?

Teen StirUps is designed for adolescents in age range of 11-19.

It is a space for teenagers who are going through the typical challenges of life such as nervousness & anxiety, motivation and engagement at school and at home, screen time habits and usage, academic stress, sadness but who may not need therapy or counseling right now.

For teenagers currently engaged in individual therapy, StirUps can be complementary, a place to practice new skills and learnings.

The Experience

100% Online Meetings

Attend 75-minute sessions each week from the privacy and comfort of your own home.

Led by world class facilitators

All StirUp facilitators come with required training and experience around group work but more importantly we choose them for their personalities, their warmth and their quirk.

Meet others in similar situations

When you signup, we ask you to fill out a short form to help us get to know you. We use this info to hand-pick your group. You’ll find that in your groups, there’ll be common threads relating you to others, but also diversity that allows for fresh perspectives.

Learn from us & from each other

  • It was comforting to hear that other people went through similar things. And hearing what was good, what was bad, and what they would change.

  • I'm a secret introvert and was afraid I'd keep my guard up and not share. But, as folks started to be vulnerable, it made me want to share, and at the end of 75 minutes, I thought, 'That was really fun!'

  • I felt energised and relieved. My group helped me think differently—and clear some hurdles—that I had in my mind.
