PEERSⓇ for Adolescents
Social Skills Groups

Registration is now open for our next session
January-May 2026

Social skills development is one of the greatest areas of need among neurodiverse teens … and yet the most difficult to get right.

Most social skills therapy groups are run with good intentions
but without empirically validated methods.

PEERSⓇ is different.

PEERSⓇ for Adolescents is a highly structured social skills intervention designed for high school students who want to improve their ability to make and keep friendships.
The 14-week program includes training components for the teen and their parents or caregivers. Each week, 2 sessions are run simultaneously.

In one session, the teens work with our PEERSⓇ Certified Provider to learn new social skills through structured lessons and role play as well as real-world practice and experiences.
In the other session, parents or caregivers participate in their own structured session in which they learn how to support their teen in applying the targeted skills in their daily life.

The course is a transformative experience for the teens and their families.

PEERS has entered the chat.

But…What is PEERS?

PEERS is an empirically validated (aka - widely researched and globally shown to work) social skills intervention for teens.

PEERS is different because it directly involves parents and caregivers and emphasizes REAL LIFE, up to date scenarios that our teens and adolescents face.
