WELCOME
The Friendship Connection is a center devoted to teaching children with social-emotional difficulties how to form connections with others. We service children with autism, Asperger disorder, attachment issues, OCD, anxiety, ADHD, behavioral disorders, non-verbal learning disorder, sensory integration disorder, and other non-specific social-emotional difficulties that interfere with their ability to relate to others.
Through group work, home intervention, individual therapy, parent support and training, guided recreational activities, and school consultation our goal is to help each child learn and apply the skills necessary to build friendships. Children who tend to see the world in black and white are shown how to navigate the gray areas in their social landscape. The earlier intervention begins, the more successful our children will be in school and life.
Research has demonstrated the effectiveness of neurofeedback to improve many conditions including:
● ADD/ADHD
● Anxiety
● Autism Spectrum Disorder
● Bipolar Disorder
● Chronic Pain
● Depression
● Headaches
● Memory Issues
● PTSD
● Sleep Problems
● Traumatic Brain Injury
Individuals report enhanced memory and focus, decreased impulsivity and anxiety, better mental clarity, more restful sleep, improved mood, and a host of other benefits after using neurofeedback.

JOIN A FRIENDSHIP GROUP
Friendship groups will focus on teaching children how to develop friendships and engage in naturally occurring social interactions and community activities. Children will learn and practice the social and communication skills essential to forming friendships and relating to others. Groups will also foster connections between the child and his/her community. Specific skills targeted and activities will be determined by the age, needs, and profiles of the individuals in the group. Any behavioral or developmental concerns raised by parents will also be addressed.
