This aspect of delay, broadly categorized as a developmental delay, signifies an aspect of the child’s overall development (physical, cognitive, scholastic skills), which place them behind their peers. Due to these special requirements, students’ needs cannot be met within the traditional classroom environment and special education services adapt the content, teaching methodology and delivery instruction to meet the appropriate needs of each child.

For kids struggling with social anxiety, poor social skills, or inattentiveness, the group setting offers the therapist a chance to help kids work through their obstacles with other kids as they occur. Group therapy can also be a source of support for kids dealing with grief, bullying, anxiety and depression, and other mental health issues.

An eating disorder is a mental health condition where you use the control of food to cope with feelings and other situations. Unhealthy eating behaviours include eating too much or too little or worrying about your weight or body shape. While anybody can get an eating disorder, it is usually common in teenagers between 13 and 17 years. With the popularization of unhealthy and unachievable body types through social media,teenagers often develop eating disorders and body dysmorphia. At Solace, we work towards helping our clients to develop a healthy relationship with food and their body.

Testing involves the use of formal tests such as questionnaires or checklists. A psychological assessment can include numerous components such as norm-referenced psychological tests, informal tests and surveys, interview information, school or medical records, medical evaluation and observational data. At Solace, we use peer reviewed, reliable and valid tests and assessments that help us gain a clearer picture of our client and help us create the best treatment approach.

Teenage is a time of growth and puberty changes. These years also bring along physical, mental and social challenges. Teenagers at this time also struggle for independence and control, develop romantic interest and feelings, and are easily influenced by their peers and the need to be accepted by their social group. These changes can often lead to conflicts at home, in school and with other authority figures. In this age of social media, we aim to help struggling teenagers to gain clarity regarding their development and how to perceive and face these challenges in a healthy way.

Solace-Consultation for child care and primary caregivers

Primary caregiving relationships provide a strong foundation for responsive interactions and communication between an infant/ toddler and their caregiver. It is through a child’s relationship and its context that the developing brain begins to structure itself and create a foundation for future learning. At Solace, we aim to enable caregivers to develop close, positive relationships with toddlers and infants, so as to create a secure foundation for a child’s exploration, leading to cognitive, linguistic and social-emotional development.

Solace-Infant-Parent programs

Parents and their infants are going through a momentous process of change in early development. In parent-infant psychotherapy, questions, worries and concerns are raised and addressed by focusing on the interaction between parent and baby. At Solace, we help the parent observe and address what works to reach the baby. The infant’s reactions to modifications lead to the next step in the therapeutic process until the problems are resolved.

Solace- information and referrals

Our information and referral services are aimed at parents who are looking for legitimate sources of information regarding their children and require referrals for specific needs, such as a school that suits your child’s needs, age appropriate toys or even doctors. Parents are often confused and worried about their child’s development, and at Solace, we strive to help you understand, whether you have a simple doubt or strong concern about your child’s development, parenting styles or any other queries.
