Event Series Event Series: Pre-Teen/Teen Group (Ages 10-14)

The Pre-Teen/Teen Group will be running for winter 2023. The group will meet Tuesdays from 4-5PM beginning 1/10 and continuing to 2/28. A mandatory parent group will meet concurrently with this group. Parent and pre-teen/teen groups will meet in adjoining rooms. Proof of COVID-19 vaccination is not required. Masks are optional.

A Project Rex intake for children and teens is required prior to group participation. Please call Courtney at 843-792-4113 to schedule the initial intake. Once the intake is complete, again call Courtney at 843-792-4113 to register to attend.

This group’s curriculum will focus on social conversations: introductions, good listening, finding common interests, and two-way conversation.

Wondering about admissions criteria? For Pre-Teen/Teen Group …

  • Teens and parents must be able to commit to the full 8-week program
  • Note that this Group has more opportunities for movement based activities, but teens must be verbal and able to sit and listen to a lesson for periods of approximately 15 minutes at a time
  • A parent or parent representative must be present at either group
  • Teens are encouraged to complete computer-based homework to practice the skills at home

Also note that with parent permission, video modeling will be used in group as a learning tool; participant role plays will be videotaped, shown to participants, and shared with parents as well.

To schedule an intake, call Courtney at 843-792-4113 and request a Project Rex Assessment.

Once the intake is complete, contact Courtney at 843-792-4113 to confirm attendance in the group series.

Please plan to arrive 15 minutes early for sign in and registration.

Interested patients and family must commit to being able to attend each group session. We can no longer allow patients and family members to join the group after the first week. We ask if you know you cannot commit to the full 8 week series to instead consider attending a future round of the program. Thanks for your continued support and cooperation as we work with all insurances to ensure that our programs remain available to all children.
