The therapeutic groups at ABA Clinic were created to address real difficulties experienced in social contexts, at school, at home, and with peers. In a safe, predictable, and structured environment, children and adolescents practice social, emotional, and behavioral skills, learning to communicate better, handle frustration, regulate emotions, and build more positive and well-adjusted relationships.
Many of the difficulties experienced in daily life, such as challenges in emotional management, impulsivity, anxiety, relationship difficulties, or low self-esteem, are not resolved through individual understanding alone. They require experience, practice, and relationship.
Therapeutic groups offer a structured and safe context where social, emotional, and cognitive skills can be practiced in interaction with others, under specialized clinical supervision. In this space, participants learn to recognize patterns, experiment with new ways of thinking and acting, and transfer these learnings to everyday life, promoting real and sustained change.
In a group setting, children and young people practice social skills in real-life situations, with professional guidance and continuous feedback. Working with peers facilitates learning and generalization to school, family, and other daily life contexts.
Groups allow for working on emotions as they arise. Participants learn to recognize feelings, deal with frustration, anxiety, or impulsivity, and develop more adjusted responses in their relationships with others.
Through structured dynamics, skills such as assertive communication, empathy, cooperation, and conflict resolution are trained. The goal is to promote more balanced relationships, social confidence, and greater participation in social contexts.
In therapeutic groups, cognitive skills are addressed within real social contexts. Through practical activities, we promote attention, mental flexibility, and problem-solving abilities while interacting, waiting, cooperating, and communicating with others.
In a group setting, emotions arise through interaction with others. We work on emotional recognition, frustration tolerance, and behavior management in real-life situations, helping children and youth respond more adaptively to everyday challenges.
In a group context, essential social skills such as reading social cues, turn-taking, flexibility in interaction, and adapting to others are addressed.
