My daughter has been attending the social skills group, Friendship Club, for the last several months, and it is making such a difference in her development.
Now my daughter can express when her or others feelings are hurt by using her ‘whole body listening’ skills and improving her ability to read facial expressions. That has led her to to more empathetic to her family and friends, even to characters in movies.
She can now express what a ‘small problem’ and ‘ big problem’ is and self-soothe by reflecting on that.
Since joining the group our daughter is steadily showing improved turn-taking with family and friends. And what I think is the best part is that all of this has led her to show her family so much more eye contact than ever before. There has just been a great deal of improved behavior overall. We are so grateful for Friendship Club and all the talented therapists at Child Success Center.
