About
Social skills, the way they actually stick
Build It is a small, in-person group where neurodivergent kids learn social skills through real connection — not worksheets. Build It is designed by a registered psychologist and delivered by trained facilitators. Every child is assessed by the psychologist before they join, so each group is the right fit. Part of Melbourne Chinese Psychologists in Canterbury, and our psychologist is bilingual in English and Mandarin.
Groups
Two small groups, by age.
Making and keeping friends
For kids who find friendships hard to make or hard to keep, and who do better with peers who think like they do.
Confidence with peers who get it
For teens building social confidence in a group of peers who understand them — without pretending to be someone else.
Why it works
A different kind of group.
Peers who get them
Kids spend the session with others who think and connect in similar ways.
Cooperative, not instructional
Skills grow through play and shared goals — not lectures or worksheets.
Psychologist-designed
Built by a registered psychologist who personally assesses every child before they join.
In person
Real bodies, real rooms, real connection — the way social confidence actually grows.
