Group Work

Brick By Brick is a LEGO® Therapy program run in small groups. Brick By Brick helps children develop social skills, emotional regulation, confidence, communication, and teamwork in a fun and engaging way. 

It can be beneficial for children experiencing anxiety, social challenges, or difficulties with emotional regulation. It can also be a fun, supportive social activity for Lego lovers.

The Wellbeing Studio is a creative arts group incorporating the principles of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). The group provides a warm and welcoming no-pressure environment – no art skills needed! The group includes a focus on:

• Understanding your values and living in line with them
• Developing skills to manage emotions in healthy ways
• Completing a creative art piece designed to inspire further reflection on the session’s theme

Sessions run for 1.5 hours, with an opportunity after the structured program to continue working on a creative project or simply to spend some time in our rooms or garden connecting with others.

Afternoon tea will be provided.
