The therapy team is made up of professionals from a range of different backgrounds including clinical psychologists, counselling psychologists, forensic psychologists, cognitive behavioural therapists, family therapists, art therapists, drama therapists and psychological practitioners. The team is also supported by assistant psychologists.
All therapists have completed training in their specific area of therapeutic intervention and are skilled in psychological assessment, formulation and intervention for children, adolescents, adults and families. They also have skills in working with the system or organisations around the individual, evaluating and developing services, research, and providing psychological training and consultation.
All therapists are registered with their own professional body, where necessary. All psychologists are registered with the Health Care Professionals Council.
Many of our therapists are trained in a variety of therapeutic approaches and integrate these in their practice. This breadth of experience and training within the therapy team allows for multi-disciplinary perspectives to be shared, ultimately providing a more holistic approach that can meet the needs of children and young people with wide ranging and complex difficulties.
The common therapeutic approaches used within the team are outlined below:
