The Therapeutic RPG group is an interactive group therapy that will use tabletop role-playing games as social therapy to help pre-teens and adolescents gain useful skills.

These sessions are for kids age 11-14, and young adults age 15-18.

Through the use of imaginative & fun role-playing games, children and young adults can develop:
Social skills
Anger Management
Creativity
Problem-Solving
Confidence
Conflict Resolution
Teamwork

This group therapy program is run by Matthew Fahy, M.A., L.M.H.C. Each role-plying session lasts three (3) hours. Groups are held once per week for six (6) weeks.

PLEASE NOTE: The FIRST session is FREE of charge. There will be a small meeting fee for each participant, beginning with the second session, and will be determined by the size of the group. Emerald City does not receive any portion of this fee, and is providing the room to the group free of charge.

Each session will take place in the Event Room at Emerald City Comics, to allow for privacy.
