Consultancy

Are dysregulated children and challenging behaviours impacting upon the teaching and learning in your school? Is it affecting pupil progress?

Are your staff managing repeated challenging behaviours? Maybe they are spending more time managing behaviour than teaching. 

Our behaviour specialist can help you to embed whole school approaches, by developing policy and practice.

Play and Creative Arts Therapy

What is Play Therapy?

Play and Creative Arts Therapy is a therapeutic approach that helps children in a variety of ways.

Play is a child’s natural language, it enables them to communicate and express themselves in a non-threatening way.

Play is essential  for children's social, emotional, cognitive, physical, creative and language development. It helps make learning easier for children and young people, including those who find verbal communication difficult. 

Play and Creative Art Therapy helps children process traumatic experiences and upsetting events that have impacted their lives.  

The therapist will support the child/young person's emotional development, to understand their feelings and thoughts. 

Play gives the child/young person a space to act or play out traumatic or difficult life experiences in order to make sense of their past and cope better with their future. It can also help them to manage relationships and conflicts in more appropriate ways.

Behaviour Analysis

Does your child present with dysregulation and display challenging behaviours at home? Do you have children in your school that show repetitive behaviours? 

As adults and in the moment, in can be difficult to remember that behaviour is a form of communication. Challenging behaviours can leave adults feeling overwhelmed at times. 

We can support you to 'unpick' the behaviour,  identify the triggers and implement strategies to aid you and the child when they are presenting with such behaviours.
