Before We Start
Our first appointment involves building rapport with your child and making them comfortable. We administer relevant standardised assessment/s and give you as much feedback on the spot as possible or is appropriate. We usually finish by playing a game with your child and of course, giving them a sticker! A written report will be prepared that will outline concerns and therapy recommendations.
