Divorce Care for Kids (ages 7-12)
Separation/Divorce creates family change and feelings associated with adjusting to change. Kids are often confused and experience a sense of loss they are not sure how to manage. Kids can feel a sense of responsibility to "fix" the family. There is a common desire to want the family to return "back to normal." Adapting to different homes, schedules and expectations can be uncomfortable. Objective: a safe place to explore what separation/divorce means with peers who are experiencing similar changes. Kids will participate in discussions and activities to help them express their feelings and thoughts around what they are going through.

SociABLE - Kids group
When a child wants to be with others but is struggling to understand how to work in a group, they often feel rejected, disconnected and lonely. These big feelings can often translate into a range of behaviors from disruptive to being quiet and withdrawn. We will be learning to feel more self esteem and less anxious, to feel more independent, how to handle rejection and disagreements, how to choose appropriate friends, how to have a conversation and share and learn about others, and how to handle the impact of life stressors.
