Social Groups for Children and Teens
In addition to supporting the goals of individual therapy, social groups with our therapists goes beyond supporting children and teens’ individual sensory, motor and emotional profile to address moment-to-moment social interactions between peers that occur in daily life. By doing so, we’re able to promote self-regulation, shared engagement, reciprocity and emotional thinking – which are integral for the child’s success in the family, school and larger community.
We are open Monday through Saturday to schedule.
