Secret Agent Society® (SAS) Program

Every child faces social and emotional challenges as they grow. For some, difficulties with friendships, emotions, anxiety, communication or problem-solving can make everyday situations feel overwhelming.

At Ramsay Psychology, we offer the Secret Agent Society® (SAS) Program, an evidence-based social and emotional skills program designed to help children develop the confidence and practical skills they need to thrive at home, at school and in social settings.

What is Secret Agent Society®?

Secret Agent Society® is an award-winning program developed for children aged 8 to 12 years. Using an engaging spy-themed approach, children become "Cadets" and learn a range of social and emotional skills through interactive activities, games and real-world practice challenges.

The program has been used internationally for more than a decade and has been shown to assist children who experience challenges related to:

  • Anxiety
  • Social confidence
  • Emotional regulation
  • Friendship and peer relationships
  • Autism
  • ADHD
  • Managing change and everyday social situations

How the program helps

Through the SAS program, children learn how to:

  • Recognise and understand their own emotions
  • Identify emotional cues in others
  • Manage feelings such as anxiety, frustration and anger
  • Develop problem-solving skills for social situations
  • Build and maintain positive friendships
  • Improve teamwork and communication skills
  • Respond to challenges such as bullying and conflict
  • Adapt to change with greater confidence

Children are supported to practise these skills in everyday situations, helping them build lasting confidence and resilience.

A team approach

One of the unique strengths of Secret Agent Society® is its focus on involving the important adults in a child's life.

Parents, caregivers and schools play a valuable role in supporting children as they practise new skills. The program includes resources that help families reinforce learning at home and encourage ongoing progress in everyday environments.

By working together, children receive consistent support across home, school and social settings, helping maximise their success.

Who is the program suitable for?

The Secret Agent Society® program may be suitable for children aged 8 to 12 years who:

  • Experience social anxiety or low confidence
  • Find it difficult to make or maintain friendships
  • Have challenges understanding emotions or social cues
  • Need support managing strong emotions
  • Have been diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
  • Have ADHD
