Psychology is understanding how and why people think, feel, behave and react the way they do. Psychology for children can help with social, emotional, mental health or behavioural difficulties, which can impact their learning, relationships and emotional well-being at home and at school.
Our psychologists are experienced in working with children who have experienced trauma, complex needs, developmental delays or disabilities.
Families and children come to psychological therapy for different reasons and symptoms. Therapy, particularly in the early years of a child’s life, can address concerns when the brain is developing rapidly and is most open to change, which can have a lasting positive impact into their future.
Some of the reasons we see children with an NDIS Plan include:
- Developmental disabilities, such as intellectual disabilities, developmental delays, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD) and difficulties related to Autism Spectrum Disorder
- Difficulties with emotional regulation and maladaptive behaviour
- Trauma, stressful events and adjustment issues
- Concentration and learning difficulties
- Assessing current difficulties
- Anxiety related disorders
- Mood disorders
Noah’s Psychologists work with the child, their family and other significant figures in the child’s life, like their teacher or health professionals.
