NextAuth: How to protect route groups without middleware?

Because I'm not using SSR, I don't have access to middlewares. My first idea was moving useSession({required: true}) up, from my pages to my layout. But that's not working out because useSession() only works within <SessionProvider> {children} </SessionProvider>. Does that mean I need to create another wrapper between <SessionProvider> and my pages? Like:

<SessionProvider>
  <AuthChecker> // runs useSession({required: true})
    {children}
  </AuthChecker>
</SessionProvider>

<SessionProvider>
  <AuthChecker> // runs useSession({required: true})
    {children}
  </AuthChecker>
</SessionProvider>

And run useSession({required: true}) inside AuthChecker ? Or is there a better way?

The NextAuth.js client library makes it easy to interact with sessions from React applications.
