Psychotherapies include: CBT, DBT, ACT, EMDR, interpersonal therapies, play therapies, creative therapies,

drug and alcohol counselling, schema therapy, the gottman method, emotion focused therapies, mindfulness & compassion focused therapies.

Mental Health OT interventions include: capacity building, developing therapy plans, developing age

appropriate life skills such as self care, planning and organisation skills, financial management, study and employment goals, managing and enhancing executive functioning, coping strategies and developing community connections.

In contrast to a deficits-based approach which focuses on “fixing” the impairments associated with neurodevelopmental conditions, Reach Life draws on a neurodiversity-affirming approach as we acknowledge that all neurotypes have unique strengths, interests, and support needs.
