Therapeutic approach
For autistic children and adolescents and those with ADHD, the world can sometimes bring complexity, overwhelm, and a sense of being different. The therapeutic space invites a shared journey of curiosity and a deeper understanding of the authentic self: recognizing strengths, meeting what is present with compassion, and developing confidence in navigating life's challenges. Collaboration with the family is a meaningful and essential part of the process. Therapy combines conversation, body awareness, play, and creative expression.
