"We follow PEERS® (Program for the Education and Enrichment of Relational Skills) method. This research-backed treatment was developed for youth and young adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Research has shown it to be effective in helping youth and young adults with Autism, ADHD, anxiety, and other social challenges.
During each group session, individuals are taught important social skills and are given the opportunity to practice. Parents or social coaches attend separate sessions. Parents/social coaches learn effective methods to support others in making and keeping friends. Individualized coaching and therapy is available as well."
