Connected Kids: Summer Group

Connected Kids: Summer Group

Many children spend time adjusting to the changes that come with Summer break. Very few are given a safe space to process those emotions, build connection, and learn healthy ways to navigate those transitions.

This 4-week summer support workshop does just that. Led by Dr. Latasha D. McFarland, EdD, MS, LPC, Certified Imago Relationship Therapist, this supportive and engaging group helps children ages 6–12 build emotional awareness, communication skills, confidence, and healthy family connections through play, creativity, movement, and therapeutic activities.

Children will learn how to express big feelings in healthy ways, strengthen relationships with siblings and step-siblings, navigate transitions between homes, and develop coping skills that help them feel more secure and understood. Through games, storytelling, art, mindfulness, and guided discussions, children will discover they are not alone in their experiences.

This group integrates social-emotional learning, attachment-based awareness, play therapy inspired activities,  and Imago-informed relational skills exercises to support children navigating the changes of the season with compassion, connection, and care.

Designed as both therapeutic and fun, this summer experience creates a safe environment where children can grow emotionally while building friendships with peers.

Enrollment is limited to maintain a supportive and personalized group experience.
