Cognitive Assessment
- 'Cognition' describes the way in which our brain processes and retains pieces of information.
- A cognitive assessment can help highlight, and empower a person to take advantage of their cognitive strengths. It is also useful to support new ways to perform day to day tasks so the person can take pride in achieving greater self-reliance.
Sensory Assessment
- A sensory assessment is useful to help measure sensory processing patterns and effects on functional performance.
- Understanding how we respond to various sensory stimuli can assist in reducing hyper-arousal, distress and distraction. It can increase our concentration and motivation and can assist to regulate our behaviour.
Social and Emotional Skills Intervention
- Using a range of Dialectical Behavioural Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy strategies, we can support you to learn how to make and keep healthy friendships, gain confidence in communication and social engagement.
- Learn ways to regulate your emotions, manage your frustration or anxiety, build your window of tolerance and develop a strong sense of yourself.
Clinical Supervision
- Supervision is imperative to maintain and develop knowledge, skills and professional behaviours to ensure core aspects of good clinical practice are demonstrated.
