Occupational TherapySpeech and Language TherapyMusic TherapyArt TherapyCounselling
Occupational Therapy

Occupational therapy helps with everyday activities that a child participates in, whether that is washing, dressing, eating, playing, handwriting or something else. Occupational therapists look to see if there’s anything that a child finds difficult and then at how they can help to make it easier. They see both children with diagnosed needs and significant disabilities, and those with undiagnosed needs and general concerns about coordination.
Speech and Language Therapy

Speech and language therapy helps children and young people with their communication skills, so that they are able to understand other people better and clearly communicate their own thoughts and ideas to others.
Music Therapy

Music Therapy session will generally involve songs used each week to start and end the therapy and then time in between for free musical play. Here your child and the therapist will use instruments to improvise, providing space for expression and opportunity to work towards individualised goals.
Art Therapy

Art therapy is a place for children/families to come and express themselves through the artmaking, play and exploring various art materials. This work is based on a safe therapeutic relationship and the client/s can use the materials to express themselves, which is particularly helpful for those who struggle to verbally express themselves. The client/s can decide what they would like to use and the therapist follows the process, working with what the client/s decides to bring up. Goal-based and short-term work is also possible with Art Therapy.
Counselling

Counselling sessions offer an opportunity to think about how we are feeling and how best to understand and cope with those feelings, with someone who is completely separate from our family or school. We normally do this through playing, chatting, drawing and writing.
