Therapeutic support for children aged up to 12 years to help them better understand and manage their feelings.
Our Discovering Me clinicians are specialists in understanding the thought processes of children and how these translate into actions and behaviours. Discovering Me aims to grow your child’s understanding of their emotions, helping them to develop coping skills for daily life.
Discovering Me can help children to grow their emotional awareness – by learning about feelings and how to cope with uncomfortable feelings like anger and confusion.
Discovering Me offers support for children and their families with:
- Behavioural problems
- Anxiety disorders
- Depression
- Adjustment disorders
- School issues (such as bullying, performance anxiety and perfectionism)
- Trauma and attachment disorders
- Body image and eating concerns
- Dealing with grief
- Sleep and toileting issues
- Developing parenting skills, particularly for parents of children with a disability or challenging behaviours
How do I make an appointment?
- For a free appointment you will need to speak to your doctor or Paediatrician. Your doctor will make a referral to Country & Outback Health on your child’s behalf, then we will contact you directly to make an appointment time.
- If your child is an NDIS participant with Improved Daily Living funding in their Capacity Building Budget, complete a referral on our website, or call us and we will help you book an appointment.
- NOTE: Self-referrals can only be completed if your child is a current NDIS participant
