Our social skills group is for school-age children (ages 6-10) who are struggling with peers and at home. Children in our group try to make and keep friends; however, anxiety, depression, and difficulty reading social cues impact social interactions. These children feel discouraged as they desperately want to make friends. We help children through practice and feedback in the group social situation. Our clinicians implement activities to provide children with the opportunity to learn skills in challenging situations. Children learn to interact with the group effectively. Our groups are developmentally and age-appropriate.

My clinical practice draws from extensive training in psychotherapy that integrates a psychodynamic perspective with therapeutic interventions that match the unique needs of a client. The range of interpersonal and skill-based interventions includes an understanding of family, culture, and gender specific influences on the current issues or concerns. The use of mindfulness principles and skills provides an added support to clients for strengthening their ability to better manage stress and for overall well-being.
