All
our patients are seen for therapy by a consultant
child and adolescent psychiatrist.
We prefer to have the same therapist carry out both
individual and family therapy. It enables issues
raised in individual therapy to be addressed in
family therapy should the child request help in
raising the subject.
We also have group therapy
sessions and our key nurses
see the children at least once a week for an informal
session. |

The
children are seen weekly for individual therapy
and every two weeks for family
therapy. The frequency of therapy sessions can be
increased if it is thought to be beneficial. Dr
Dawson, the medical director, sees the family for
family counselling as necessary.
