Your Teen Deserves a Space Where They Belong

Teen years can be tough—especially for neurodivergent teens who may struggle with social connection, feeling understood, and navigating a world that often feels overwhelming.

At Supportive Engagement, we provide structured, neuro-affirming group sessions where teens can connect, express themselves, and build confidence in a supportive, pressure-free environment.

Our goal?
🌿 To help teens connect authentically with others—both in and outside of group sessions.
🌿 To give parents a support network where they can share experiences and strategies.

Because no one should have to navigate this journey alone.

Why Socializing Can Feel Challenging for Neurodivergent Teens

Many teens with Autism, ADHD, or sensory processing differences struggle with:
📌 Feeling misunderstood in social settings
📌 Difficulty reading social cues or engaging in small talk
📌 Sensory overwhelm in loud or unpredictable environments
📌 Anxiety around making and maintaining friendships

Traditional social spaces often don’t meet their needs, leading to feelings of isolation, self-doubt, or exhaustion from masking.

At Supportive Engagement, we do things differently.

Our In-Office Therapy Groups for Neurodivergent Teens

Our therapy groups provide a structured but flexible space where teens can:

Practice social skills naturally—in a safe, judgment-free environment.
Explore shared interests—through conversations, creative activities, and guided discussions.
Gain confidence in their identity—without pressure to conform or mask.

These aren’t forced social skills classes. They’re intentional spaces where teens can feel seen, heard, and valued.

Beyond the Therapy Room: Building Lasting Connections

The goal of our groups isn’t just to help teens feel comfortable inside the therapy room—it’s to empower them to form meaningful connections in everyday life.

🌿 Many teens in our groups naturally form friendships outside of sessions.
🌿 They find peers who share their interests, struggles, and perspectives.
🌿 They gain confidence in socializing in ways that feel authentic to them.

Because social connection isn’t about fitting in—it’s about finding where you truly belong.

Parent Support: Because You Deserve Community, Too

Parenting a neurodivergent teen comes with its own set of challenges and joys. That’s why we offer a parent support chat group where caregivers can:

✔ Share strategies and wins with other parents
✔ Get emotional support from those who truly understand
✔ Learn new ways to advocate and support their teen’s growth

You don’t have to figure this out alone. We’re here for you, too.

Ready to Help Your Teen Build Social Confidence?

At Supportive Engagement, we create a space where teens feel safe, connected, and empowered—and where parents have a supportive community of their own.
