DESCRIPTION:
Reactivity can be a sign asking for our attention, care, and curiosity.
In this 90-minute Autistic Adults NYC Men’s Group, we will explore what happens when we react and what responding can feel like. Rather than judging, explaining, or trying to change our reactions, we will explore them as they unfold.
We will discuss how we react, what happens in our bodies, how we reach toward or push against others and our surroundings, what past experiences may come with us, and whether our responses feel like an extension of ourselves.
This is a structured discussion, not a lecture. Peter will introduce each topic, ask clear questions, and offer optional Gestalt exercises focused on what you notice in the moment.
You are invited to share your own experience using “I” statements. Speaking is always optional. You may listen, move, stim, take a break, or participate in whatever way is needed.
Autistic Adults NYC Community Guidelines and confidentiality apply throughout the group.
