SUMMARY:Weekly Virtual SM / Social Anxiety Group for Ages 9 to 12 in NY\, NJ\, and CT
DESCRIPTION:Anxiety can keep kids stuck — quiet in class\, hesitant in groups\, or quick to withdraw from situations that feel uncertain. This once-weekly\, 90-minute virtual group helps pre-teens (ages 9 to 12) break that cycle. \n\n\n\nThrough engaging\, age-appropriate activities that mirror real-world challenges — like participating in classroom discussions\, joining group conversations\, and collaborating on shared tasks — kids learn to manage anxious thoughts\, challenge self-doubt\, and lean into social experiences. Each session offers practical tools\, peer connection\, and hands-on coaching in a safe and supportive space. As they take small\, intentional steps forward\, pre-teens build the confidence to speak up\, join in\, and engage more freely in everyday life\, without letting anxiety call the shots. \n\n\n\nVisit squareonenyc.com to learn more! \n\n\n\nFee: $200 per session
