Therapeutic Groups at Family Centre

Family Centre Therapeutic Groups and Social Skills Groups are part of our menu of Counselling Services for children and teens in Bermuda. These groups are run after-school and are designed to increase children’s and teens’ social and communication skills so that they can better self-regulate and develop healthy relationships. Groups are created around various themes appropriate for different developmental stages. Children and adolescents learn through direct discussion, as well as role-playing and therapeutic games and activities with peers designed to introduce and strengthen specific social-emotional skills.
