SUMMARY:Emotional Regulation & Social Skills - Week 3 (Tweens)
DESCRIPTION:Emotional Regulation & Social Skills: Could your child use some help with managing big feelings and impulses?  Are these difficulties interfering with their functioning at school\, home\, or with friends?  This group draws from Michelle Garcia-Winner’s social thinking curriculum\, using a narrative-based approach to these behaviors by externalizing them as “Unthinkables” characters\, or villains\, that your child will learn to combat – just like their favorite superheroes!  Using a group format where your child can connect to peers who have similar struggles is an effective and fun way for children to develop skills in these areas and build new friendships.  This is a great group for children with ADHD or high-functioning Autism Spectrum Disorder\, although neither diagnosis is a requirement to join the group.  Neurotypical children who struggle with these challenges benefit as well\, and groups are typically a mix of neurotypical and neurodivergent kids. Accepting new clients aged 5-12.  All groups are divided by age brackets of 1-2 years (e.g. kindergarten/1st grade\, ages 8-10\, “tweens”). \n\n\n\nWeek 1: January 4th\, 2026Superflex vs. Rock Brain \n\n\n\nWeek 2: January 11th\, 2026Defeating Topic Twister Meister \n\n\n\nJanuary 18th OFF (MLK Weekend) \n\n\n\nWeek 3: January 25th\, 2026Introducing the Zones of Regulation & Identifying Triggers \n\n\n\nWeek 4: February 1st\, 2026Defeating Unwonderer \n\n\n\nWeek 5: February 8th\, 2026Gatekeeper: Expected vs. Unexpected Behaviors \n\n\n\nFebruary 15th OFF: President’s Day Weekend \n\n\n\nWeek 6: February 22nd\, 2026 \n\n\n\nPerspective Pete vs. One Sided Sid \n\n\n\nWeek 7: March 1st\, 2026Cool Q.

SUMMARY:Emotional Regulation & Social Skills - Week 1 (Tweens)
DESCRIPTION:Emotional Regulation & Social Skills: Could your child use some help with managing big feelings and impulses?  Are these difficulties interfering with their functioning at school\, home\, or with friends?  This group draws from Michelle Garcia-Winner’s social thinking curriculum\, using a narrative-based approach to these behaviors by externalizing them as “Unthinkables” characters\, or villains\, that your child will learn to combat – just like their favorite superheroes!  Using a group format where your child can connect to peers who have similar struggles is an effective and fun way for children to develop skills in these areas and build new friendships.  This is a great group for children with ADHD or high-functioning Autism Spectrum Disorder\, although neither diagnosis is a requirement to join the group.  Neurotypical children who struggle with these challenges benefit as well\, and groups are typically a mix of neurotypical and neurodivergent kids. Accepting new clients aged 5-12.  All groups are divided by age brackets of 1-2 years (e.g. kindergarten/1st grade\, ages 8-10\, “tweens”). \n\n\n\nWeek 1: January 4th\, 2026Superflex vs. Rock Brain \n\n\n\nWeek 2: January 11th\, 2026Defeating Topic Twister Meister \n\n\n\nJanuary 18th OFF (MLK Weekend) \n\n\n\nWeek 3: January 25th\, 2026Introducing the Zones of Regulation & Identifying Triggers \n\n\n\nWeek 4: February 1st\, 2026Defeating Unwonderer \n\n\n\nWeek 5: February 8th\, 2026Gatekeeper: Expected vs. Unexpected Behaviors \n\n\n\nFebruary 15th OFF: President’s Day Weekend \n\n\n\nWeek 6: February 22nd\, 2026 \n\n\n\nPerspective Pete vs. One Sided Sid \n\n\n\nWeek 7: March 1st\, 2026Cool Q.
