Teen Connect is our in-person semi-structured group where teens come together to work on effectively creating and navigating relationships. It is primarily for adolescents with social challenges (e.g., difficulty making or keeping friends) and/or Autism Spectrum Disorder. The group focuses on skills building in the following areas: developing empathy and perspective-talking, expanding flexibility, boosting self-esteem and confidence, problem-solving and conflict resolution strategies, improving communication and conversational skills, building and maintaining interpersonal relationships, choosing appropriate friends, managing difficult peer situations, dealing with rejection and disappointment, strengthening emotion awareness and regulation, attending to self-care, adjusting to change, increasing mindfulness and coping strategies, cultivating kindness and compassion, identifying and incorporating value-driven actions, navigating social media, and more.
