Child Therapy Service

Understanding and supporting children to thrive requires a trauma-informed developmental approach that considers their entire being: their internal nervous system, sensory preferences, and relationships with others. By examining each of these aspects and taking a holistic approach – we put the child at the centre of everything, effectively address their needs and implement interventions for lasting change. Our approach delves into why a child’s nervous system might feel dysregulated, using neuroscience as our guide. We explore the internal factors, understanding what triggers feelings of unsafety, as well as the external factors in their environment that contribute to dysregulation. Additionally, we focus on the in-between space, considering how we can build a supportive team around the child to aid in their healing process. By considering all these areas, we aim to be a catalyst for positive change. Through tailored interventions, we strive to integrate this knowledge and create a comprehensive plan to build greater capacity, help the child move beyond survival and into a state of thriving.
