Our group is designed for youth who either have been diagnosed or identify as being neurodivergent (ADHD, Autism, etc.). Everyone can get better at social skills! This group helps you feel more confident and comfortable in social situations. Our groups are a safe and fun place where we practice making friends, talking to others, solving problems, and understanding feelings -all in a supportive, welcoming space!

Nope! No formal diagnosis is required to participate. If you believe that it would be helpful to learn / practice any (or all!) of the topics covered in our group skills, you are welcome here!

"Neurodivergent" is a word we use to describe people whose brains work in different ways than what is considered "typical." Everyone's brain is a little different, but some people think, learn, or feel things in ways that stand out more. That’s called being neurodivergent. For example, people with autism, ADHD, or dyslexia are often called neurodivergent. Their brains might be really good at some things and find other things harder. It doesn’t mean something is wrong. It just means their brain works differently. And different isn’t bad—it’s just different!

Each session includes a mix of structured skill-building activities, group discussion, role-play or practice, and time to socialize. We’ll play games, act out real-life situations, talk in small groups, and practice things like starting conversations or working in teams. We also incorporate occasional group outings to put skills into practice in real-life settings!

We currently offer groups for youth ages 10-14. Groups for additional age ranges may be available in the future depending on interest and scheduling. Each group includes up to 8 participants. Keeping the group small helps everyone feel included, heard, and supported — and gives each person space to engage meaningfully.

Groups meet once a week at the same time each week. Usually each session is around 45–60 minutes. The group will meet once a week for several weeks. While consistent attendance is encouraged for the best experience, we understand that school, sports, and other responsibilities are important too — you’re welcome even if you can't make it every time!

Groups are currently held in person, as face-to-face interaction offers the most natural and effective way to practice social skills and build real-world connections. That said, we understand that situations can change — if the need arises, we may offer online sessions occasionally or in the future to ensure continued access and flexibility.

All groups are led by certified/trained therapists or clinicians with experience in working with neurodivergent individuals. They guide the structure, offer support, and help facilitate meaningful practice and discussion.

Sometimes! Certain outings may involve a small additional cost (like going out for snacks, an event, or an activity), but we keep these costs as low as possible, and they’re always optional. We also balance them with free or low-cost activities, so everyone can participate comfortably.

At this time, our social skills groups are self-pay only and are not covered by insurance. We’re happy to provide more details on rates and payment options when you reach out.

Because of our small group sizes, spaces can fill up quickly. If a group is full, we’ll add your name to our waitlist and notify you as soon as a spot opens or a new group begins.
