SUMMARY:Voices Rising for Ages 4 to 12 in Bronxville\, NY
DESCRIPTION:Dr Rachel Busman sm@cbc-psychology.com \n\n\n\nVoices Rising is an intensive group treatment for children aged 4-12 with Selective Mutism (SM). Using a classroom-like structure\, the group provides many opportunities to speak and engage with other peers and adults. \n\n\n\nSpeaking goals are individualized to fit the needs of the child\, focusing on asking and answering questions\, initiating conversations\, speaking and presenting to larger groups\, and engaging in peer-to-peer interactions. Each day consists of developmentally appropriate and engaging activities designed to facilitate “brave talking.” Groups are divided by age and will engage in different activities that are geared specifically for that age group. Other highlights of the program include classroom visitors\, which add opportunities to practice speaking goals with new people and going out in the community. Parent training sessions are an integral part of the overall treatment. There are 5 separate parent training sessions (virtual).

SUMMARY:Weekly Virtual SM / Social Anxiety Group for Ages 13 to 17 in NY\, NJ\, and CT
DESCRIPTION:For teens with Selective Mutism and/or Social Anxiety\, everyday moments — such as speaking in class\, initiating a conversation\, or attending a social event — can feel overwhelming. This 60-minute\, once-weekly virtual group is designed to support teens (ages 13 to 17) in taking meaningful steps toward greater communication and confidence. \n\n\n\nUsing evidence-based strategies and real-life practice scenarios\, teens build skills to navigate anxiety\, improve self-awareness\, and connect with peers. Group sessions include a mix of structured activities and organic conversation\, all guided by a clinician who understands how to meet teens where they are and help them move forward. Over time\, teens learn they can show up — even when it’s hard — and that their voice has a place in every space they’re in. \n\n\n\nVisit squareonenyc.com to learn more! \n\n\n\nFee: $200 per session
