Psychologists and counsellors employ evidence-based therapeutic techniques including Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), among others. Sessions are outcome-focused and goal-oriented, targeting areas such as emotional regulation, social skills, communication, sensory coping, and daily living skills. The service is designed to be educative and highly responsive to each child's individual needs.
