Committed families with a neurodivergent child/ren that would like more individualised support to understand and improve social, emotional, & behavioural challenges and difficulties with learning e.g. liaison with schools/professionals, individual parent coaching, individual child counselling/coaching re anxiety, challenging behaviours, self-esteem, academics, communication/social challenges, understanding complex strengths/challenges etc. 

Most helpful for parents &/or children with neurodivergence &/or learning challenges such as 2e, gifted, Autistic, ADHD, (stealth) dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, auditory processing disorder, visual processing disorder, anxiety, etc.

To be neurodivergent means to have a brain/body based difference from the average brain. This can include ADHD, Autism, Dyslexia, 2e, Gifted, Dysgraphia, Dyscalculia, etc. Neurodivergence includes both strengths and challenges. C KIDS THRIVE strives to focus mainly on strengths while also providing support for challenges.  

Your child doesn't need an official diagnosis or cognitive/neuropsychological testing for families to take advantage of Individual Family Support. If you feel your child has extra support needs & struggling to show their abilities, manage academics/behaviour/social/emotions, C KIDS THRIVE is right for your family. Book a Discovery Call and we can chat more about your needs and the next best steps.

Individualised Family Support begins with a free Exploration Call to assess suitability. 

The support continues with a comprehensive intake, (and if needed, an observation at home & the child’s educational institution; if applicable. Includes listening to the child’s perspective and gathering information from the family and if necessary, relevant professionals). 

We would then collaborate on the next best steps to support the family as a whole; & educational institutions when applicable. 

Individualised family support would then continue with parent coaching, min. 1 x per month, and often also involves child counselling, and sibling support. The type of support your family would utilise would depend on your family's current challenges & support needs.

C KIDS THRIVE's focus is to work with the whole family. The Individualised support for the children is play-based (for developmentally ‘younger’ children) with specific strategies to highlight their strengths and scaffold their learning to manage their challenges. For ‘developmentally older’ children, the focus is on collaboratively working together with the child to discover strategies and strengths that enable them to be connected, calm and compassionate towards themselves and others. This is generally online.
