Social Skills

Developing strong social skills is essential for children and teenagers to navigate relationships, build connections, and thrive in social settings. At Greenwich Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, we offer specialized programs and interventions to support the development of social skills. 

Our trained therapists utilize evidence-based techniques to teach communication, empathy, problem-solving, and emotional regulation skills. Through individual or group sessions, we create a supportive environment where children can practice and reinforce social skills, leading to increased confidence and improved social interactions.
