Our belief is that children need effective communication skills as a foundation for the successful participation in activities at home, school, and in the community. We strive to build these critical skills so that children are prepared to fully participate in the world in which they live.

Our goal is to give children with potential or existing challenges the best opportunities to maximize their success. With enough successful opportunities to practice these evolving skills, we believe children and adults can make fundamental changes in their self-image, confidence, and ability to relate to others.

Enriching Lives through Communication

Socially Speaking provides social skills coaching for children, teenageres, and adults. We believe that social behavior can only be learned in a social context.  Those we see typically have not learned social skills from environmental cues and experiences, but rather, they require direct teaching and practice to obtain them.  Both children, teens, and adults can be coached in social skill development in the context of a small group where specific skills are taught, practiced and reinforced.  Our program teaches others how to initiate social contact, how to maintain mutually satisfying contact and how to enhance the quality and scope of interaction with others.

If, after reading about our program, you feel you or your child would benefit from our services, please give us a call or e-mail us to set up an initial evaluation. We look forward to hearing from you!
