Behaviour Therapy
At Acua, Behaviour Therapy helps clients explore and overcome challenges impacting their lifestyle, behaviours, relationships, decision-making, neurological understanding, or how they perceive and interact with the world. As a form of Developmental Therapy, our goal is to foster healthy mindsets, adaptive decision-making, and constructive actions.
Address challenges
-
Socialisation challenges: This can involve feelings of isolation, difficulty building or maintaining trust, issues with dishonesty or control, experiences of abuse, or simply struggling to make and keep friends.
​
-
Emotional dysregulation: Understanding, managing, and responding to your emotions can be challenging. We help you identify you're feelings, learn how to manage intense emotions, and understand triggers affecting your behaviour.
​
-
Mental wellbeing challenges: Support for conditions such as anxiety, depression, defiance, trauma, fear, autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), stress responses, isolation, fixation and more.
​
-
General counselling: A space to meet with a therapist to address any personal challenges or concerns.
Behaviour therapy at Acua primarily uses talk therapy, which may be complemented by additional tools and interventions introduced by your therapist to support your journey.
Paediatric Clients
For our paediatric clients, keeping children engaged is crucial for therapeutic benefit. Our therapists at Acua design interventions that are not only effective but also enjoyable and fun. While it might look like games, drawing, play, or activities, these tools are carefully chosen to complement and address specific therapeutic goals and support your child's growth.
Parents, we encourage you to ask your therapist for explanations of any interventions used during your child's session. This is vital, as we believe reinforcing therapeutic goals between sessions helps accelerate progress.
