Greentree Group Programs at JSSA
The Greentree Group Program offers a diverse array of therapeutic group experiences designed to support individuals across all stages of life. These groups range from short-term psychoeducational and skills-based groups to longer-term clinical processing groups, and are tailored to meet diverse needs.
For children, adolescents, and young adults, groups are organized by age and focus area, addressing emotional and behavioral regulation, mood and anxiety challenges, and social skills development, especially for those with neurodivergent profiles.
For adults and older adults, our groups focus on topics such as managing mood and anxiety, navigating life transitions, and parenting support.
Please call (301) 603-2862 to speak with our group program intake specialist to learn more information about openings in our groups.

Bridging the Distance: Support for Parents Experiencing Family Estrangement is a therapeutic support group for parents navigating the emotional, relational, and practical challenges of estrangement from their adult children. This group provides a confidential, compassionate space where parents can explore the complex feelings associated with estrangement—including grief, shame, anger, confusion, and longing—while building skills to support emotional healing and healthier patterns of communication.
Through psychoeducation, guided reflection, and experiential exercises, participants will deepen their understanding of family systems, attachment wounds, boundary-setting, and trauma-informed communication. The group emphasizes strengthening emotional resilience, reducing self-blame, and fostering a sense of connection and hope.
Members will learn strategies for self-care, managing uncertainty, responding to high-conflict dynamics, and navigating potential reconciliation at a pace that feels safe and respectful.
