Asperger
Syndrome Workshop
This
is a supportive therapy group where young women ages 15 through
18 with a diagnosis of Asperger Syndrome can discuss personal
issues and practice skills that will enable them to engage
in more effective and satisfying interpersonal relationships.
We focus on learning to identify and build on personal strengths,
and to practice greater acceptance of self and others. We
also practice the development of a variety of crucial social
skills that will help participants to join in with their
peers in more successful ways.
This
group meets for 12 consecutive Thursday evenings from 5:00
p.m. to 6:30 p.m. The purpose of the group is to provide
a safe and comfortable atmosphere where older teenagers and
young women can learn to master a variety of interpersonal
skills and to learn how to feel less anxious about themselves
and their relationships with others.
The
cost of this group is $600.00 in advance or $60.00 per session.
This group may be partially covered by insurance plans.
Please call Dr. Parks at 919-918-1014 for more information
regarding this group.
