“We were very lucky to have found Thrive Wellbeing Centre when one of our teenagers needed professional help and support through some difficult times. Our therapist’s warm personal approach and creative professional methods made a huge difference on our teenager’s path to recovery.”
While we provide child counseling and therapy, it can often be confused with what a child behavioral therapist provides, commonly known as Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA). This is a therapeutic approach that seeks to influence a child’s actions, emotions, and thoughts in a positive way.
Get in touch to find out how we can help you repair or improve your relationship. Contact us however you feel most comfortable, for example Whatsapp message us, or feel free to call us on +971 56 895 2347. You can also email or simply send us a query via our online form. Instagram message, Facebook chat… whatever works best for you!
Our goal is to make you comfortable.
What do we do?
We use a combination of evidence-based treatments including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), play therapy, and art therapy.
Our specialists provide child counseling and therapy, which is different from Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). Specifically, our team uses a therapeutic approach to support children with their cognitive, emotional, and behavioral needs.
The first session is between the parent(s) and the therapist, without the child. The purpose of this session is for us to gather information that will help us assess, diagnose, or treat your child.
The second session begins with the parent, child, and therapist. Confidentiality is discussed and the limits are established. After this occurs, the parent(s) are asked to wait in the reception while the therapist and child meet.
Parents play a crucial role in this process, so we are here to support you too. Learn more about our parenting services.
