PSYCHOLOGICAL THERAPY & INTERVENTION FOR CHILDREN AND ADULTS
Psychological therapy helps individuals and those who support them to better understand and manage issues which may be causing distress or difficulty so they can live more fulfilling lives. This may include looking at ways of changing what we do, how we think, or how we relate to situations and other people.
There are different types of psychological therapies. What type of therapy someone has usually depends on what issues they are wanting to work on and which therapy is the best fit for them.
