Some things are easier in a room with people who already get it. You don’t have to explain the background first, and nobody is surprised by anything you say.

These are the groups we run. They are kept small on purpose, led by our clinicians, and built around how neurodivergent kids, teens, and adults actually connect. Ask us about start dates and openings.

For kids and teens

Executive Functioning Group, ages 5 to 10

Getting started, staying with something, and knowing what to do next: the invisible skills that make school and home feel possible. Built for how younger kids actually learn, which means doing rather than discussing.

Executive Functioning Group, ages 11 to 15

The same skills, aimed at the years when the demands jump: multiple teachers, longer assignments, more to keep track of, and far less scaffolding than elementary school provided. Practical strategies for the moment the workload outgrows the old routines.

Tween Girls Group

For tween girls navigating friendships that get noticeably more complicated at this age. Autistic girls are often missed precisely because they are working so hard to keep up socially. This is a place where that work can stop for an hour.

For teens and adults

Table Top Game Group

Board games and tabletop roleplaying, run as a group. The game gives everyone something to do with their hands and their attention, turn-taking is built into the rules, and nobody has to make small talk to be included. Connection happens sideways here, which for a lot of people is the only way it happens at all.

For you, the parent

Autistic Parents Group

For parents who are autistic themselves. Parenting is demanding for anyone; doing it while managing your own sensory load, your own burnout, and a school system that expects you to be endlessly available is a different job again. This group is not about how to parent an autistic child. It is about being an autistic parent, which very few people are talking about.

Moms Group

A place for mothers to talk honestly about how it is actually going: the appointments, the advocacy, the guilt, the parts you cannot say out loud at school pickup. Support that is for you, not for your child.

Joining a group

Groups start at different times through the year and sizes are kept small. Tell us which one you are interested in and we will let you know when the next one begins. Book an appointment or call (602) 767-7100.
