Child’s fit with the group will be assessed during the first session.

Details: 
Our facilitators will help children become more aware of their feelings, and better able to calm down using different tools and strategies, They will also work with them on interacting more effectively with others to build better relationships and handle difficult situations.
When children become more attuned to their own and others’ feelings, and more skilled at self-regulation and interpersonal communication, they are more likely to:

  • Have fewer outbursts and tantrums
  • Improve their relationships with siblings and other kids
  • Behave better at home and school
  • Become calmer and happier overall
