🎯 Why Our Groups Work

Small Groups, Real Connection

Maximum 8 participants per group ensures everyone gets heard and meaningful connections form naturally. You're not just another face in the crowd — you're part of a carefully cultivated community.

Peer Learning in Action

There's something powerful about learning from others who truly understand your struggles. Our groups provide safe spaces to practice social skills, share experiences, and realize you're not alone in your challenges.

Skills That Transfer to Real Life

We don't just talk about social skills — we practice them! Through group interactions, role-playing, and real-world assignments, participants build confidence that extends far beyond our sessions.

Trauma-Informed & Neurodiversity-Affirming

Our approach honors each person's unique brain, background, and experiences. We create spaces where being different isn't just accepted — it's celebrated as a strength.

Flexible and Accessible

Rolling enrollment means you can start when you're ready. Evening and weekend options available. We work with most insurance plans and offer sliding scale fees.

❓ Common Questions

What if I'm too anxious to join a group?
That's exactly why our groups exist! Social anxiety is incredibly common, and you'll find others who understand. We start slowly with trust-building and create a judgment-free environment where it's safe to be yourself.
How do I know if I'll fit in?
We carefully consider group composition and offer a brief consultation before you join. Our groups celebrate neurodiversity and different personalities — there's no "right" way to be social.
What's the time commitment?
Most groups meet weekly for 90 minutes. We recommend staying for at least 8-12 sessions to see real benefits, but there's no rigid contract — we work with your schedule and needs.
Do you take insurance?
Yes! We accept most major insurance plans. We also offer sliding scale fees and payment plans to make groups accessible regardless of financial situation.
What if I don't like the group?
No pressure! We offer a free consultation and encourage you to try 2-3 sessions to get a real feel. If it's not a good fit, we'll help you find alternatives that work better for you.
