DIAGNOSTICS

Diagnostics can be performed to gain insight into the talents, strengths, and support needs of the child, young person, and/or their environment. Diagnostics involves gathering the information needed to address the request for assistance. This ensures that appropriate support is always provided, tailored to the child and situation.

 

Diagnostics may include intelligence testing, observations, interviews, and questionnaires. Based on this comprehensive information, a targeted approach is developed that is tailored to the child's specific situation.

 

Research can be carried out both at school and in the consultation room in Bezuidenhout (The Hague).

GUIDANCE/THERAPY

Do you recognize this in your child?

children playing sand
  • Often afraid or insecure, for example in new situations or going to school.

  • Quickly becoming angry or frustrated and having difficulty expressing emotions

  • Finding it difficult to play together or make friends

  • Very sensitive , quickly overstimulated or sad

  • Difficulty concentrating or feeling rejected quickly

  • Getting stuck in emotions , which also causes unrest in the family.

  • Thinking a lot, worrying or having trouble with an always active and thinking brain

Some children think and feel intensely. Their minds are always "on," they quickly make connections, and perceive a great deal. This can be consistent with (characteristics of) giftedness, but even in children without a label, this intensity can cause tension, restlessness, or anxiety.

​

As a parent, you want nothing more than for your child to feel comfortable. Sometimes that's not possible (temporarily), and it's comforting to have someone there to support them.

Approach

Together, we examine the current situation and the desired outcome. A tailored approach is created, utilizing various techniques, including (positive) Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, solution-focused approaches, and ACT(4life).
For children with a "racing brain," guidance focuses on learning to manage thoughts, feelings, and tension. During guidance, the child learns that thoughts come and go, that they don't have to resolve everything in their head, and that they can choose behavior that aligns with their values.

In a playful and practical way, children discover new ways to cope with thoughts, feelings, and situations. Parents are actively involved, allowing them to practice at home as well.

Result

Collaboration and the desired situation are central to the guidance provided. Here too, a customized approach is created, utilizing techniques from, among other things:

  • (Positive) Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

  • Solution-oriented work

  • Systemic work

  • ACT4LIFE (based on Acceptance and C ommitment Therapy )
