Navigate the Stress of Senior Year with Confidence
Senior year of high school is a whirlwind of emotions, decisions, and transitions. It’s not just about finishing strong academically; it’s about managing the stress of what comes next. Between college applications, social pressures, extracurricular commitments, and family expectations, your senior might feel overwhelmed by it all.
High school seniors face a unique blend of challenges:
College Applications: Crafting essays, managing deadlines, and choosing the right path
Balancing Act: Extracurricular activities, family relationships, friendships, part-time jobs, academic deadlines
Family Expectations: Wanting to live up to to family expectations and navigating pressures.
An Uncertain Future: the overwhelming prospect of leaving home and stepping into the unknown
Social Dynamics: Friendships, Social Media, Social Pressures
Identity Exploration: Who am I and who do I want to be in this next chapter?
At Beach Cities Psychotherapy, we understand how stressful senior year can be. That’s why we’re offering a dedicated Senior Stress Support Group specifically designed to help high school seniors navigate these challenges with confidence and resilience.
In our group, your senior will:
- Explore Their Emotions: A safe space to talk about fears, hopes, and uncertainties.
- Learn Time Management: Develop skills to juggle academics, extracurriculars, and personal life effectively which they can bring with them to college.
- Build Resilience: Learn coping strategies to better manage stress now so that they are well-prepared in college.
- Foster Accountability: Encourage goal-setting and accountability to stay on track with their goals and ambitions.
- Connect with Peers: Build a network of support with other seniors who understand what they’re going through.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which payment methods are accepted?
Payments can be made with cash, check, credit card, or Zelle.
What is the cost of psychotherapy?
Psychotherapy fees vary depending on which therapist you select to work with as well as which service you are seeking. Feel free to contact us to discuss the exact fee.
Are psychotherapy fees covered by health insurance?
We are not in-network with any insurance companies. If you have a PPO plan or a plan with out-of-network benefits, your insurance company may reimburse you for services. This means that you will be responsible to pay for our services up-front and then we provide you with forms to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.
You can check your specific mental health benefits with your health insurance and ask the following questions:
- Do I have benefits for outpatient psychotherapy services with an out-of-network provider?
- Do I have a deductible and has it been met? If my deductible has not been met, what deductible needs to be met for insurance to reimburse?
- What will insurance reimburse after that deductible has been met and what do I need to do or provide in order to get reimbursed?
- How many psychotherapy sessions will be covered per year?
