What We Treat
Social Skills
Social skills do not come naturally to everybody
Social skills do not come naturally to everybody especially people who are diagnosed with ADHD, autism spectrum disorder, and other neurodivergent disorders. We can assist with decreasing the anxiety related to social interactions, improving communication skills, reaching objectives, maintaining relationships, and prioritizing self-respect in interpersonal situations.
We look forward to working with you collaboratively to increase your confidence and competence in social situations. Read more here about resources that help foster social skills.

We can help:
Our therapists use a variety of techniques to help strengthen a wide range of social skills.
We understand that we are living in a world where it can be difficult to keep up with the evolving modes of online communications, which can leave us feeling disconnected from the types of meaningful interactions that help build our social skills and foster our ability to properly express ourselves or engage with others in general.
We seek to help you better understand how to navigate both online and in-person social skills, knowing that there is an increasing pressure, and recognize the value and distinct skill sets for both.
While social skills assistance may be helpful for those who have a diagnosis such as ASD, ADHD, and other intellectual and developmental disabilities, it can be beneficial for anyone who struggles with social interactions.
We provide proven social skills training through our PEERs program, as well as addressing tools and strategies in a group, individual, family, and couples therapy.
