Join us at our California clinic! The Social Thinking Clinical Training Program is an advanced three-day in-person (only) training that enables you to deeply explore the Social Thinking Methodology as it relates to other social metacognitive approaches, tools, and strategies. Learn how to conduct and analyze a Social Thinking Dynamic Assessment, observe live groups and individual sessions across many different ages, brainstorm teaching ideas with Social Thinking therapists, and learn from and with fellow attendees from around the world. Please note: This training does not certify the attendee as a Social Thinking therapist or trainer.

  • Fees

The Social Thinking Clinical Training Program (in-person only) is designed to provide an opportunity to observe and discuss ways to use components of the Social Thinking Methodology for both assessment to teaching. Latest thinking about research informed topics are a part of the learning as well as new ideas for how to infuse and embed lessons and concepts into home and school settings. Attendees learn together as part of a very small group from around the globe, providing opportunities to learn from one another. Attendees observe group and individual sessions with learners in preschool through adulthood, with most falling within the school-age years. Structured observations will include groups with varying social learning characteristics and styles. There is usually at least one preschool group and some adult sessions, but this is dependent on the current client demand. Observing early learners or adults is not guaranteed.


Important: This year the Clinical Training Program is only offered at our California locations, Santa Clara, and San Jose. The two clinics are only one mile apart from each other, but we recommend ordering a Lyft or Uber for moving between the two clinics on day 1.

What Participants Are Saying

  • Iris, SLP

    What a wonderful, small and multidisciplinary group to learn with. The length was also just right for me and I loved the depth and breadth of topics covered. Thanks also for arranging for us to see many varied sessions and assessment as well. I enjoyed the opportunity to ask questions of Michelle, Pam, Randi and Ryan. Thank you all again for such a valuable and fun training opportunity. I look forward to the e-trainings and providers conference in the future!

  • Kym, SLP & Mental Health Clinician

    The training provided a detailed discussion of the frameworks and hierarchies that underpin social thinking interventions that will be valuable in my practice. Access to clinical observations and participation in clinical activities was invaluable.

  • Kathleen, SLP

    I loved the collaborative design which helped me learn the material and think through information as related to my own caseload. The information provided was novel from any of the other courses I have taken with Social Thinking or in general. I enjoyed observing the group sessions and was able to get some ideas for my own group sessions, as well as developing future groups.
