Social Skills Group
Summit Pediatric Therapy’s social skills groups are designed to help children and teens gain necessary life-long skills in school, in friendships, and beyond. They focus on developing age-appropriate skills including turn-taking, sharing, waiting, listening, and much more. Social skills include far more than the ability to communicate with other people. They’re crucial to making friends, succeeding in school, and getting and keeping a job. Groups are tailored to each child’s individual needs and provide built-in learning time, while also allowing time for peer interaction. Social skills will be practiced within a positive environment. Group leaders can use this time to coach children in “real life” interactions and promote successful social interactions. This increases one’s self-esteem and provides the confidence to try new social behaviors with peers outside the group. 60 minutes per week, Times Vary per location. Locations: Centennial, Denver, Littleton, Parker & Westminster. Social Skills Group – Summit Pediatric Therapy – Speech OT PT (summitpedstherapy.com)
