NEUROAFFIRMING THERAPY SERVICES SUPPORTING AUTISTIC, ADHD AND NEURODIVERGENT CHILDREN AND TEENS

At Autism Consultancy Services (ACS), our Individual Therapy Services for children and teens with autism, ADHD and complex neurodiversity are highly personalised to meet the unique needs of every child and teen. Through compassionate, evidence-based approaches, we support children in achieving their social, emotional, and developmental goals. Whether in our clinic, at home, at school, or online, we create a safe, engaging environment where children can thrive.

Our capacity-building sessions are designed to address the specific needs of younger children with autism, ADHD and complex neurodiversity through a highly tailored approach. Every journey begins with an in-depth discovery session and assessments to establish clear, individualised goals. From there, we develop a personalised plan that can include:

• Child-Centred Play Therapy: A safe and unstructured environment for creativity and exploration, designed to foster self-awareness and emotional growth, offering opportunities to address challenges in a way that feels natural and empowering.
• Structured Capacity-Building Sessions: Engaging activities designed to help younger children build social and emotional skills, as well as develop practical skills to assist them in life at home, at school, and in the community.

We provide highly customised neuroaffirming individual therapy for autistic and neurodivergent teens, offering a flexible and supportive approach tailored to their unique needs. Sessions may include talk therapy, creative therapies, practical life-skills support, and social stamina sessions designed to help teens recovering from autistic burnout.

These may include (but are not limited to):

• Recovering from autistic burnout
• Building social stamina
• Building confidence
• Tackling executive functioning struggles
• Developing self-regulation strategies
• Becoming a better self advocate
• Developing interpersonal skills
• Navigating friendship struggles
• Becoming more independent
