Survive to Thrive Program

​

Ben Speaks Survive to Thrive spring programs support mental health and behavior health for families.  We know the impact that mental health issues have on individuals, families, and communities and work hard to serve as a resource to those that are affected by the stigma, volatility, and demands placed on far too many today.  Our groups offer a nurturing environment to share unique experiences with mental health issues, engage in fun and expressive activities and develop skills and resources to thrive in the face of life challenges.

These programs are filling up fast, so register quickly or pass them on to others who might be interested.  All Ben Speaks Survive to Thrive programs are paid for by our sponsors, donors and grantors.

Neurodivergent Parenting

​A 4-week support group for parents of neurodivergent teens.


If you are parenting a neurodivergent teen, statistically speaking, you and/or your co-parent are likely also neurodivergent. This dynamic can often be exhausting. A neurodivergent parent healing themselves as they parent neurodivergent teens offers unique gifts and insight, but also requires extra support.

Join Pasha Marlowe, therapist and coach for neurodivergent youth and adults for the past 30 years, for this 4-week support group that will address your unique interests and needs as well as educate you on the nuances of different neurotypes.

​

Starting October 19, 2023 | 5pm-6pm for four weeks 

Meetings will be held via Zoom
