Available during some school holidays, Meet and Greet: Social Skills for Teens is for teenagers in Years 7 – 10 who have difficulty knowing how to make friends and how to keep friends.

We work through strategies for:

• Figuring out what others are thinking and feeling
• Starting and continuing conversations
• Managing and communicating feelings e.g. anxiety, anger
• Solving social problems e.g. disagreeing, negotiating
• Adjusting to different social situations
• Understanding unwritten social rules
• Sharing interests with other teens
• Being confident

Cognitive strategies are taught and practised in the context of fun activities e.g. ten pin bowling, music, cooking and eating together.
