About our Programs

  • For kids, teens & adults.   

  • Weekly sessions run for the duration of the school year at the same time and day each week.

  • Sessions are 45 minutes with the kids, and 15 minutes with parents.

  • Each group is carefully matched so that all kids share common goals, learn at the same pace, make lots of progress, and love coming to group!  

Our groups are neurodiversity affirming- We believe that kids should work on what makes sense to them as soon as they are able to, and that they should love coming.  For more info on this, please see our philosophies. 

Our Programs

  • Neuro-Diversity Affirming Social Groups

    For kids who want to feel better about themselves and who want to feel better in social situations. Our weekly groups offer kids a positive social experience, and an opportunity to learn strategies to help them break down and make sense of our complex social world. We offer evidence-based therapy that is individualized and that kids like attending. Much of our sessions are based on the Social Thinking methodology and on other leaders in the field.

  • High Support Groups

    Occasionally kids cannot participate in our group sessions because they require more of a small-group in order to be successful. We keep these groups even smaller than our other groups, and often have additional staff to help support these kids as well. But don’t worry- this is all to make sure that group is still awesome, fun for them.  

  • Individual Sessions

    Group settings aren’t always as much as kids need. For extra attention to specific social dilemmas or to offer additional support, we offer one-on-one sessions.  Please note, these sessions are predominantly during school hours because our after-school slots are mostly booked for groups. 

  • Partygoers!

    For kids who have mostly finished with groups but who want to work on maintaining their skills and meeting like-minded awesome people- come to our seasonal parties!

    *This is only open to kids who have been in groups with us and who we know will be a good match for the other partygoers.
