Reduce stress, release big feelings, and enhance your emotional regulation in this engaging 10-week wellness group designed for Autistic teens ages 13-17. Participants will explore their unique sensory profiles while discovering new activities to help them relax and manage stress. Through exploring a wide range of activities based on our sensory systems (sight, sound, touch, smell, taste, movement, and internal feelings) teens will develop a personalized list of strategies tailored to their individual needs. By the end of the program, participants will leave with an expanded “emotional toolbox” and a deeper understanding of how to regulate their emotions and nervous system based on their surroundings.
This program was developed in collaboration with a Registered Kinesiologist.
