Individual Support & Guidance
At Kids Therapy Club, we offer 1:1 psychology and counselling sessions for all age groups, including adults and families.
Our Counselors and Psychologists focus on support in understanding a young person’s world and what is happening around them. It helps families better understand how their child’s mind ticks and how they can be supported at the highest level throughout childhood, adolescence and into the future. Through child psychology and counselling we address language learning, imaginary play, core memory functioning, decision-making and problem-solving (all of which are vital to a child’s mental health).
Counseling and psychology helps with the extra needs of each individual, from grief and trauma to relationship issues (with parents, siblings and peers) and education (school). It also addresses developmental delays and provides support for children with learning difficulties and disorders such as Autism Spectrum Disorder, Attention-Deficit Hyperactive Disorder, Attention-Deficit Disorder, Oppositional Behaviour Disorder, Pathological Demand Avoidance and more.
Our psychology team offer clinical and standardised assessments across a number of areas including:
- Beck Youth Inventories: anxiety, depression, anger, self concept and disruptive behaviour
- S&D Questionnaire (SDQ): emotional problems, conduct problems, hyperactivity, peer problems and prosocial skills
- Conners 3: ADHD, conduct disorder, oppositional defiant disorder
Adaptive behaviour assessment system - DASS: depression anxiety and stress scale
- WPPSI 3: Weschler preschool and primary scale of intelligence

Dealing With Mental Health Problems
Psychology can help to deal with mental health problems such as childhood and teenage depression and anxiety; and generalised stresses of early development. Often behaviour and social skills are adversely impacted by mental health problems, which is something we also seek to address through psychological therapy and developmental support.
At Kids Therapy Club, our child psychologists work with the entire family unit in creating an individual care plan that aligns with the child’s therapeutic goals.
Our psychologists take into consideration the child’s personal needs and therapy goals when creating this plan as it assists in shaping the child’s mind and environment. Family members are also welcome to attend their child’s psychology session.
