Family support philosophy
Pediatric specialists
With world-renowned physiotherapist Molly Sherman at the helm, we are the leading paediatric allied health provider.
Molly has been seeing and releasing children’s potential for over forty years. Implemented by her team of paediatric specialists, her model for providing child centred and family centred therapy is second-to-none. Key to the model, is the personalised approach. No two children are the same and their therapy programs are customised accordingly with functional, family-centred goals developed.
We live in a world where you can be surrounded by people, but still feel lonely, with nobody to turn to when things get rough. But being heard is an important part of being human. Psychologist, Glen Moriarty saw that there was great power in listening, but he knew not everyone had someone to talk to. He started to wonder. “How can I make being heard a reality for everyone?”
In this framework, shocking or traumatic events damage us by disrupting our stories, mangling our established narratives of self and the world. They do this by refusing to fit into our established narrative (“This is not me; this can’t be happening”) or by flooding and overwhelming it (“I can’t stop thinking about it; nothing else matters”). To “process an issue” in this case is when therapy helps us to either integrate the traumatic event into our life’s narrative or pull our story out from under the weight and confusion. One reason this is helpful is because difficult events often lead to avoidance.
Their executive functions will finish developing somewhere between the age of 25-30, so they will find it easier to cope with typical ADHD challenges, and hormonal levels will be more stable. Importantly, as they grow older, they might get better at coping with their symptoms. This in turn could lead to less distress and fewer challenges with daily functioning.
Children don’t truly “outgrow it” as this isn’t exactly possible. For example, in adults, hyperactivity might look more like mental restlessness, or a person’s fidgeting is more subtle. Another example: Children often experience their parents’ divorce in real time as somehow their fault, and thus may harbor guilt and self-doubt related to the event even many years later. Observing the events of a divorce from an adult perspective allows the client to realize that their parents’ divorce was not their fault, and that the childish expectation that their behavior could somehow have mended their parents’ rift was both development.
Our goal is to remediate delays and maximize potential. We offer individual and small group services in our Lycka therapy center.
