Are there any other concerns or conditions you support?

Every child and family has unique circumstances, so we recommend booking an initial parent interview with one of our psychologists to talk through your situation and explore whether we can provide support beyond the conditions listed.

What can I expect in the first appointment?

The initial session is a parent interview designed to understand your child and your concerns. We will discuss their development, strengths, and any current challenges, and explore possible next steps together, including whether ongoing support may be beneficial.

How can I tell if my child may benefit from support?

Many families seek support when changes in behaviour, emotions, learning, or relationships begin to affect daily life at home or at school. If you feel unsure or concerned, an initial appointment may help clarify whether support may be beneficial.

How do assessments differ from therapy?

Assessments help develop a clearer understanding of how your child thinks, learns, and functions, whereas therapy focuses on supporting emotional, behavioural, or social well-being through strategies and skill development. At times, an assessment may inform therapy, while in other situations, therapy may start independently.

What types of issues may parental management training help with?

Parental management training is designed to align with your family’s needs. Common areas we support include: Oppositional/defiant behaviours Toilet training and soiling School refusal Coping with parental separation Major life transitions
