Social Thinking - A Social Skills - Problem Solving Group for Children

Based on the work of Michelle Garcia Winner, this group will teach children to become successful social thinkers.  They will learn to consider the points of view, emotions, thoughts, beliefs, prior knowledge and intentions of others before acting or reacting.

This group also has an important one class per week parent participation component.  Parents will learn the language to help their child apply skills in real life situations.
