Holiday Therapy Groups

Helping kids make friends, take turns, and navigate tricky social situations isn’t always easy—but that’s why we’re here! At Happy Chatter, our therapy groups are designed to meet kids right where they are, whether they’re nonverbal toddlers just starting to explore the world or chatty teens working on meaningful conversations. Our groups run during school holidays and during the school term. Whatever your schedule, we’ve got you covered!

Start with a Meet & Greet
If you’re new to Happy Chatter, your child’s journey begins with a Meet & Greet at our clinic. This session brings together you, your child, and a friendly clinician to chat about your child’s goals, answer questions, and do a quick, informal assessment. It’s our way of ensuring your child joins the perfect group for their needs!

Why Choose Our Therapy Groups?

We create fun, engaging spaces where kids build essential life skills:

Making Friends: Turn-taking, sharing, and positive interactions.
Handling Challenges: Problem-solving, navigating winning and losing, and teamwork.
Understanding Emotions: Managing feelings and recognizing those of others.
Growing Independence: Patience, responsibility, and task confidence.

Empower your child with the confidence and skills they need to thrive—contact us to book your Meet & Greet today!
