Michelle G. Winner's Center for Social Thinking - located in San Jose, California - is a friendly supportive place where parents can learn about upcoming educational events in the community, gain access to information about the treatment approach Michelle and her staff is creating, purchase her products and learn about scheduling consultation and assessment appointments.
The goal is to educate all persons about the importance of social thinking challenges and how they impact students’ lives across the day.
At the center students can engage in a range of activities that help them to explore communication as an interactive process of the heart, mind, eyes, ears and mouth!
Our goal is to help students engage with others during spirited activities in a supportive environment.
At Michelle G. Winner's Center for Social Thinking we also acknowledge that this field is in its infancy and that we are all just beginning to learn practical treatment approaches that really help students to eventually process social-communicative information in a deeper way.
