Developmental Therapy

At Bridges Therapy Centre, we understand that every child develops at their own pace. However, there may be times when you have concerns about your child’s progress in areas such as communication, social skills, learning, or motor skills. This is where our experienced developmental psychologist in Cambridge can come in, to support your child’s journey through developmental child psychotherapy.

Developmental therapy is a play-based approach designed to help children reach their full potential in various areas of development. It focuses on building on a child’s existing strengths and addressing any developmental delays or challenges they may be facing. Our highly qualified developmental psychologist offers a range of services to support children of all ages and their families in Cambridge:

 

  • Child Therapy: Working collaboratively with you and your child’s other healthcare professionals, we’ll implement personalised developmental therapy techniques. This therapy may involve play-based activities, structured exercises, communication techniques, or social skills training, all tailored to your child’s unique needs and interests.
  • Parent Training & Support: We understand that supporting a child with developmental challenges can be overwhelming. Our developmental psychologist offers comprehensive parent training and ongoing support to empower you to effectively implement therapy strategies at home and navigate your child’s development with confidence.
