    Groups

    Groups are generally Expressive Arts based. The groups here are offered regularly when there are enough interested clients.

    I do offer other groups for kids based on interest, such as ‘How To Be Angry,’ ‘Friendship and Other Weapons,’ and ‘Healing Heart Wounds.’ Currently under development is a group titled ‘(Un)Broken.’ I am also able to develop groups for specific needs.

    Current Group

    Don’t miss this opportunity for your teen to increase their confidence and social skills by joining this Table Top Role Playing Group (TTRPG).

    Group members will create a woodland animal character and then, as their new character, take part in a quest that will teach them how to seek support from their peers, work with others, try on new skills, delegate and improve their interpersonal skills.

    The group will meet on Saturdays @ 2p. Each session will be 90 minutes. The group will start after all participants have had an individual intake session to assess suitability and answer questions. The group is limited to 4 to 6 members.
