Groups
Latency Age Anger Management Group
This group is designed to address the developmental needs of younger children, 10-13 years, who are struggling with impulse controls within their school and family. Students generally require IEP supports to make effective academic progress. Social skill development is focused upon from both a school-based and familial perspective. Play therapy techniques, including collaborative movie-making activities, board game play, role-playing games, and psychodramatic techniques are used to help the participants develop their social skills, emotional expression skills, and impulse control. We tend to have a lot of fun while learning more effective ways to function in life.
