ASSESSMENT & THERAPY OVERVIEW

We offer a range of Psychological Assessments for children, young people and their families. 

A psychological assessment is vital to enable us to fully understand a child's emotional, social, psychological difficulties putting these into the context of their experiences. 

We offer DDP (Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy) as a therapeutic approach to support children, young people and their families with complex developmental trauma and attachment based difficulties.
