About Whole Child Therapy

Introduction

Whole-child therapy (WCT) is a leading provider of children’s therapy services. As one of the first to market with a child-led approach, we are a recognised provider of child-led development and a market leader in evolved practice.

Our multidisciplinary team is dedicated to delivering child-led therapy that improves children’s behaviour and helps them lead happier, more fulfilled lives. Our approach has been designed to optimise children’s development by enhancing their skills in an individualised way. We specialise in providing meaningful therapy that improves children’s outcomes and enables them to participate in daily life.

As an authentic play partner, WCT provides a supportive space for child development. Our evidence-based and outcome-led approach enables children to feel motivated and valued. Our therapists understand children’s needs through play, allowing children to determine the direction of therapy, improving social behaviours, developing freedom of expression and promoting joy.

What we do

Unique & Family Led

WCT provides a unique service, founded by parents, with the aim of supporting all families in achieving happiness and physical wellbeing. Some children call it the play place, some children call it the owl place, but every child knows that it is a happy and safe space where they get to play, learn and explore. Our parents feel the same; there is always a cup of tea, a warm sofa and a friendly ear awaiting you at WCT.

 

How we do it

Together & Meaningfully

All of our treatment goals are set in partnership with families in order to be really meaningful. We don’t believe in merely changing vestibular function, how is this meaningful to a child? We want to help a child sit at the table for learning, to feel confident in the playground, to be able to kick a ball. We make sure our families not only understand their child’s needs better but that they also are able to track the whole process and feel confident in how we are working.

Why we do it

Empowering Joy

We know that children want to make the most of their life to Connect, Participate and Learn. When they are unable to do so, we can help change a child’s experience and unlock their full potential.

Who we are

Passionate & Innovative

We have assembled a highly experienced team of paediatric specialists who work as an interdisciplinary team. We constantly develop and innovate our practice to provide the very best in collaborative care for your family.  

Meet our inspiring team

 

Whole Child Therapy was born of a determination to create a service that bridges the gap between statutory service and private services. We are dedicated and passionate about our focus on collaborative working, we believe in supporting a child’s entire family and support team. Under the leadership and vision of Clinical Director Nerys Hughes, Whole Child Therapy continues to evolve and promote an interdisciplinary therapy model.  We believe that this approach gives the best therapeutic results. We work as a social enterprise to afford us the opportunity to meet the needs of many families regardless of circumstance.
