Consultations & Training

The number of children diagnosed with an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) has increased dramatically in the last 20 years. Parents of children with Autism experience a variety of chronic and acute stressors that can erode marital satisfaction and family functioning. Family therapists are well-suited to help parents stay connected to each other as they create a “new normal.” However, family therapists need updated information about autism, and they need to understand how family therapy can help parents of children with autism.

We here at Thoughtful Minds Academy, acknowledge the importance of family support in a child's development and have henceforth developed a program to guide parents and loved ones with various methods to aid in managing and living with children who have special needs. Our consultation may also include a deeper explanation on the basic principles we use in our practice for example ABA (Applied Behaviour Analysis) therapy methods.

Parent Training

We believe that parent training plays a vital role in dealing and tackling the problems linked to their child's growth and development. Our training services teaches parents how to manage their child's symptoms and characteristics from dealing their temper tantrums to disruptive behaviours. We believe collaboration with the therapist, parents and teachers will greatly enhance the learning process of the child and parents. With extra involvement from the parents and loved ones, the road to independence of your child can be improved exponentially. So why not learn to understand and be more involved with your child while tackling their challenging behaviours together!

Aside from parental training, we also conduct training sessions for teachers, caregivers and corporations who are willing to hire Special Needs Individuals.
