Registration for our November-December Skills Groups is now closed. Our next groups will begin in January 2024. Please look for registration to open mid-December.
Skills Groups are skill development workshops that are facilitated by two Sinneave staff members (one is an autistic self-advocate). In each 90-minute workshop, participants learn a variety of strategies that are foundational to success in various aspects of daily life. They are then given opportunities to practice the strategies with the support of the facilitators and other group members.
Skills Group sessions happen once a week for six consecutive weeks. The next Executive Functioning group begins Wednesday, November 1 and runs through December 6, 2023.
Do you:
- Struggle with unexpected changes?
- Have trouble getting started, or maybe have trouble stopping things you like to do when it’s time to do something you don’t like to do?
- Have you ever avoided an experience or a person because of your anxiety?
- How about when you have a great idea, but have trouble creating and acting on a plan to get it done.
If so, learning more about Executive Functioning (EF) may be for you. Research has shown us that the skills underlying Executive Functioning can be taught, practiced and improved on. When EF Skills are working, we tend to be happier and more productive. We are excited to invite self-advocates and individuals who identify as autistic to attend this six part workshop on Executive Functioning (EF). We will discuss and practice skills including: Cognitive Flexibility, Getting Started, Staying Present, Bringing your Anxiety along for the Ride, and Organization/Planning.
Participants will learn about the importance of EF and how to improve EF skills through specific practice within a safe and supportive environment.
Please note: Skills Groups are closed groups with a limited number of participants to allow for the greatest participation. They are filled by application only. These are not drop-in sessions.

The next Acceptance & Commitment Training group runs for six consecutive weeks, beginning Tuesday, October 31 and running through December 5, 2023.
Acceptance and Commitment Training (ACT) is an evidence-based approach that uses mindfulness and other strategies and experiences to reduce the impact of difficult/unpleasant thoughts and feelings. The goal of ACT is to help you learn through experience how to strengthen your mind and create psychological flexibility, which includes:
- the ability to be fully present (i.e., aware of what you are thinking and feeling, as well as what is going on around you),
- being willing to accept what you are thinking and feeling, even if it is uncomfortable, unwanted or unpleasant, and still
- direct your behavior to do what matters to you.
Research has proven ACT can be effective with a diverse range of people (including autistic people, teachers, caregivers and support workers) and conditions (including ADHD, trauma, substance abuse and psychosis).
Participants will have the opportunity to learn and share in a safe and supportive environment.
