offered:
Self-Esteem Group for Young Women with Asperger's Syndrome:
This is a supportive
therapy group where young women with a diagnosis of Asperger's Syndrome, aged 15-18 can discuss personal issues and practice
skills that will enable them to engage in more effective and satisfying interpersonal relationships. This group meets for
12 consecutive Thursday evenings from 5:00pm to 6:30pm. The
purpose of the group is to provide a safe and comfortable atmosphere where older teenagers and young women can learn to master
a variety of interpersonal skills and to learn how to feel less anxious about themselves and their relationships with others.
The group will start in July of 2008, and a new group will start up in the fall of 2009 if there are enough participants.
The cost of this group
is either $600.00 in advance or $60.00 per session. For more information regarding this group, please call Dr. Parks at 919-918-1014 or email me at createahealthymind@earthlink.net.
