ABC SOCIAL SKILLS GROUP

Welcome! We are excited for your interest in ABC Social Skills group. The first step is to fill out our inquiry form. You can also call the clinic at (703) 857-2157 for more information. After you submit an inquiry form one of our BCBAs will contact you to set up an initial intake. The initial intake includes a caregiver interview and an assessment that will give us a better idea about your child’s social skills. The initial intake costs $150.

We hold an 8-week social skills group twice a year, in the fall and in the spring. Our group meets once a week for 1-hour, level 1 meets on Tuesday evenings and level 2 meets on Thursday evenings.

Option 1: Pay per session
       Price: $75 per session
       Payment is due prior to each session

Option 2: Pay full 8-weeks
       Price: $500 for full 8-weeks
        Payment is due prior first group session

For social skills specifically, Aurora Behavior Clinic is in network with the following insurances: Cigna, Carefirst, Aetna, Magellan, Blue Cross Blue Shield & Optum. We will work with you and you insurance to navigate your eligibility and benefits. Unfortunately, Medicaid does not cover social skills group therapy. If you are interested in choosing insurance as the funding source, please email Janelle Mcdonald at jmcdonald@thearcofloudoun.org

We currently have 2 groups; Level 1 (younger/severe social skills deficits) and Level 2 (older/ moderate social skills deficits). We place children based on their age and assessment scores. This process will be outlined in detail during the initial intake.

Class sizes can range from 8-15 individuals

ABC Social Group focuses on a mixture of group learning and 1:1 instruction. The group will follow the following schedule

*topics subject to change to fit the needs of the group/individuals

We believe caregiver involvement is essential! You will not be part of the actual class but we still want you involved in our process. During the initial intake we will create caregiver goals, with the hope to increase generalization of the skills we teach. You will also get a weekly handout of the skills taught and how to incorporate them outside of the group.

We do not offer a refund if you decide to pay for the full 8 weeks. We request a 24-hour notice if you are paying per session.
