Social self-regulation is so much more than simply regulating what we do or say. Social self-regulation involves thinking about thinking (metacognition) and starts with an awareness of our own thoughts, emotions, anxieties, and the role they play in how we interpret others’ words and actions and, in turn, how ours are perceived and interpreted by others. Social self-regulation gives us the tools to work, play, learn, and communicate in groups—and is vital to achieving our personal and group goals. But for many individuals (Neurodivergent and neurotypical children/students/clients) with social thinking needs, it’s not that simple. Social self-regulation requires social awareness, social interpretation, and social problem solving to decide how to respond (or not) across a range of diverse settings and situations. It’s an internally driven journey—very different from external mandates or reward-driven programs that prescribe how to behave in a specific time and place.

Michelle Garcia Winner explains how self-regulation is a process of using one’s social competencies to socially attend, interpret people in context, problem solve how to respond, monitor how our words or actions are being perceived, and then adjust as needed to meet our own personal social goal(s).
The Social Thinking Methodology provides evidence-based strategies to help people ages four throughout adulthood develop their social competencies, flexible thinking, and social problem solving to meet their own social goals and improve:
Thank you doesn’t seem enough for all that your teachings have done for me and my family! They have been a lifeline for me to re-connect with my 9-year-old. Everything you publish is 100% applicable. Keep up the amazing work!
Parent of 9 Year Old
Social Thinking has completely changed the environment of who we are as a whole. Thank you for providing us with such rich social and emotional resources. The impact that your resources make are life changing and early intervention is key. Your curriculum is truly amazing! I bought into Social Thinking about 9 years ago and will use this as long as I am in education.
Natalie, Resource Teacher
I appreciate how the Social Thinking Methodology links social intent/thinking and the common core or school based standards. This connection, and the understanding that exists, is so crucial to every member of a student's school community.
