A dual punching bag with stand for Marissa to work on her anger

Posted Apr 15, 2024
Marissa has been struggling with her mental health and looking for outlets to help herself. She attends a partial program after school three days a week and has been able to make good connections with her therapist and other youth in the program. At times, Marissa gets very angry and has a hard time expressing this or working through her emotions. Her therapist has talked with her about being more active and finding ways to get her anger out when she doesn't feel like talking or doesn't know how to express herself. Marissa has asked for a punching bag as she would like to try boxing to help with her anger.

Marissa is 16 years old and lives in NE

Marissa is a quiet and respectful teenager. She enjoys drawing, music, and anime. Marissa does well in school and enjoys spending time with her younger sister. Marissa is very protective of her sister and spends a lot of time with her. She is a bright and intelligent young woman who strives to graduate and go on to college!
