Social Skills Groups for Children

Small-group sessions designed to help children build confidence with conversation, friendships, and everyday social communication.


What Are Social Skills Groups?

Speech Matters Social Skills Groups provide children with a supportive environment to practice real-world communication skills with peers.

Led by licensed speech-language pathologists, these small groups focus on skills such as:

  • Starting and maintaining conversations

  • Understanding social cues

  • Turn-taking and listening

  • Building friendships

  • Problem-solving in social situations

Sessions are interactive, engaging, and tailored to each group’s age and needs.

Who Are These Groups For?

Social skills groups may be helpful for children who:

  • Have difficulty initiating or maintaining conversations

  • Struggle with peer interactions

  • Have pragmatic language challenges

  • Benefit from practicing communication in a small peer setting

  • Have diagnoses such as autism, ADHD, or social communication disorder

Groups are organized by age and communication needs to ensure a comfortable and supportive environment.

What Should We Expect?

Each session includes:

  • guided social interaction activities

  • Structured games and role play

  • Opportunities for peer interaction

  • Therapist coaching and feedback

  • Strategies children can carry into school and home

Groups are intentionally small so every child receives individualized support.
