Group

The Social Skills Group aims at providing children between 3 to 8 the opportunity to develop and enhance their social skills within a small group setting and a comfortable, supportive environment. There are three different levels of groups: Novice, Intermediate and Advance. The participants will be matched and grouped based on their interests, personality and therapy goals.

The sessions are structured with fun play-based activities, preset social scenarios, explicit teaching of targeted social skills, role play and social games.
