 8 Week Social Thinking Session

Empower Your Child This Summer: The 8-Week Social Thinking Program

Our intensive, 8-week Summer Program is designed to equip students with essential social, emotional, and self-regulation skills, fostering confidence and success in school, at home, and with peers.

What Our Students Learn:

Through a supportive, fun, and low-pressure environment, we use engaging lessons, group activities, games, and real-life practice to build core competencies, including:

  • Perspective-taking and flexible thinking

  • Managing emotions and problem-solving

  • Navigating and maintaining relationships

A Practical and Personalized Approach:

This program is highly interactive and practical, giving students continuous opportunities for in-the-moment practice. We keep groups intentionally small and offer 1:1 sessions to ensure individualized support, facilitate meaningful connections, and promote a positive group dynamic.

For Both New and Returning Clients:

The program offers valuable learning opportunities for students regardless of their previous experience with Social Thinking:

  • New Clients receive a comprehensive introduction to the foundational Social Thinking vocabulary and concepts.

  • Returning Clients can keep their social learning active during the summer months and continue to build their social competencies.

Due to licensing restrictions, we are only able to serve clientS who are physically located in the state of California for their sessions.
