Intervention & Skills Building
We provide individually tailored evidence based intervention therapy specific to the individual's needs for skills development.
For most cases in relation to younger children (Under 7), sessions would be mainly with parents/ caregivers surrounding the child, as part of our 'Parent Guidance and Support' service, however this would be dependent on each case.
In the case of older children (7-17), sessions may be combined with the 'Parent Guidance and Support' service as needed to ensure that skills are being implemented and practiced in the everyday environment.
