Social Skills Groups (9-12 yrs)

Very often children and adolescents with ADHD struggle with peer relationships. Our social skills training program is designed to help elementary and early middle school aged children learn how to get along better with others. During each weekly session, children meet in small age-matched groups that are led by two or more trained therapists. Groups tend to last between 6-8 weeks. Structured sessions focus on building skills related to making friends, working cooperatively with others, managing frustration, and developing greater emotional intelligence in a fun and positive environment. Parents attend a pre- and post- informational session.
