Empowerment & Social Skills Group for Autistic Teen/Tween Girls

A place to share your interests, be yourself and learn how to feel more confident

About This Group

Let’s be real: being a teen is a wild ride. Being an autistic teen girl? Extra bonus round. Social stuff can feel like a puzzle with no instructions — unwritten rules, awkward moments, and “how am I supposed to do this?” questions all the time.

That’s where this group comes in. A small, online space where your teen can just be themselves, make connections, and build confidence — without the judgment.

Here’s What We’ll Do Together

Two girls are outside by trees looking down at something. They both have dark hair, and one of them has curly hair and has a finger on her chin. She has a ring on her pointer finger and a black bracelet. The other person has green sunglasses.

Here’s what we do together:

  • Practice real-world social skills in a safe, supportive setting

  • Share and celebrate special interests — yes, the things they actually care about

  • Learn to express emotions, set boundaries, and communicate confidently

  • Build connections with peers who understand and support them

Who is This Group For?

This group is for autistic teen/tween girls ages 11–17 (we have a group for 11-13-year-olds and a group for 14- to 17-year-olds), and anyone who identifies as autistic — diagnosis optional. We know that not everyone has access to a formal diagnosis, and that doesn’t make your experiences any less valid or important.

We’re also a radically inclusive space. LGBTQIA2S+ teens are fully welcome here, and we celebrate all identities, experiences, and ways of being.

In short: this is a place where teens can be themselves, share what matters to them, and feel safe, seen, and supported — no labels, no judgment, just connection and growth.

How It Works

Duration: 6 weeks, 45–60 minutes per session — long enough to practice, short enough to stay focused

  • Small Group: 4–6 teens max, so everyone gets attention and space to participate

  • Online: Google Meet (cameras optional — comfort first!)

  • Facilitator: Led by Sera Gray, a neurodivergent coach and Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has Autism and ADHD (and has kids with Autism and ADHD!) who’s been there, gets it, and makes social skill practice actually fun

  • Focus Areas: Communication confidence, social interaction, emotional expression, setting boundaries, and sharing special interests

Each week mixes fun activities, role-play, discussion, and a chance to share special interests. The goal isn’t just to “teach social skills” — it’s to practice, celebrate progress, and feel more confident in everyday life.

Why Your Teen Will Love It

This isn’t a stuffy class. It’s a safe, inclusive, and fun space where your teen can:

Be themselves without judgment or pressure

  1. Geek out over hobbies, fandoms, or anything they love

  2. Try out social skills in a low-stakes environment

  3. Practice setting boundaries and expressing emotions confidently

  4. Connect with peers who truly get what it’s like

By the end of the program, your teen will leave feeling proud, empowered, and more confident in their social superpowers — plus, they’ll know they have a place where they belong.
