Social skills are those skills used in communicating and interacting with others, either verbal or non-verbal. During childhood many things can get in the way of developing efficient social skills, such as: shyness, high intelligence, physical or mental illness, migration to a new country, an inhibited or anxious personality, being teased or bullied, or even having very peculiar tastes or interests that don’t mesh well with those around us. Counselling is a great opportunity to learn about these causes and improve social skills. More concretely, for children and youth many aspects can improve:
With stress at bay, confidence and happiness can flourish!
So, if you notice your child is unhappy, struggling, or being teased. Having a difficult time making friends, or participating in group activities, know that counselling can help.
