An Intensive Therapy Camp for Kids
with Selective Mutism and Social Anxiety in Seattle, Washington.
Now Enrolling for 2024 Camps!
Let’s Be Brave!
5-Day Summer Camp August 12-16, 2024 Ages 3-11
Space is limited!
At Brave Explorers Camp our goal is to provide a fun, dynamic, and life-changing, school-like atmosphere, rooted in evidence-based practice for children with selective mutism and social anxiety to use their voice with confidence.
Evidence-Based
Our program is modeled after gold-standard summer intensive treatment programs. Utilizing graduated exposure, Brave Explorers Camp draws upon the foundation of Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT-SM) from Steven Kurtz, PhD.
“In-Vivo” School Setting
By creating an environment that models a school setting, campers engage in activities that include morning circle, free play, snack, small group, recess, lunch, and behavioral rehearsal in preparation for community exposure activities (aka field trips)!
1:1 Therapeutic Ratio
Each camper is matched with a trained counselor during lead-in sessions to focus on reducing anxious avoidant verbalizations. This allows tailored and individualized therapeutic interactions for each camper’s unique speaking goals.
The Brave Explorers Camp Experience Is Comprehensive
Though Brave Explorers Camp is an intensive experience that spans 5 days, the entire treatment process is
multi-component with assessment and intake, lead-in sessions, camp, and optional follow-up sessions.
