Calm Kids Workshop: A Summer Therapy Social Group for Children (K-2nd grade)
Join us for an 8-week journey of growth and empowerment!
Is your child struggling to connect with peers? Do they find it challenging to navigate social situations or make friends? You are not alone. Many children face difficulties in social settings, and we are here to help!
Understanding Social Struggles
Social struggles can manifest in various ways, from shyness and difficulty initiating conversations to experiencing anxiety in group settings. Children who struggle socially may feel lonely, left out, or misunderstood. These challenges can impact their self-esteem and overall well-being.
The Benefits of Therapy
Therapy offers a safe and supportive environment for children to address and explore their social struggles. By participating in therapy, children can:
- Develop Social Skills: Therapists provide guidance and support to help children develop essential social skills, such as communication, cooperation, and empathy.
- Build Confidence: Through positive reinforcement and practice, children gain confidence in their ability to navigate social interactions and build meaningful connections with others.
- Increase Self-Awareness: Therapy helps children understand their emotions and behaviors in social situations, empowering them to make positive changes and express themselves authentically.
- Foster Friendship: Group therapy offers opportunities for children to connect with peers who share similar experiences, fostering a sense of belonging and friendship.
Therapeutic Approaches
At our Summer Therapy Group, we utilize evidence-based therapeutic approaches tailored to the unique needs of children struggling socially. Our methods include:
- Play Therapy: Play therapy provides a natural and engaging way for children to explore social dynamics, express themselves creatively, and develop problem-solving skills.
- Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT): CBT helps children identify and challenge unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that may contribute to social struggles. By learning new coping strategies and practicing social skills, children can improve their social confidence and resilience.
- Mindfulness Techniques: Mindfulness practices teach children to stay present and calm in social situations, reducing stress and enhancing their ability to connect with others.
Don’t let social struggles hold your child back. Empower them to thrive and flourish in a supportive and nurturing environment. Reserve your child’s spot today and spaces are limited!
