THERAPY ASSISTANCE, MENTORING & PSYCHOSOCIAL SUPPORT
At Side by Side Therapy, we understand that every journey is unique. Our therapy assistance, mentoring, and psychosocial support services are tailored to meet the needs of children and young people. Together, we focus on meeting your goals and creating positive change in everyday life. Whether it’s building life skills, fostering emotional resilience, or navigating complex challenges, we work collaboratively to create a safe and supportive environment. Our team is dedicated to empowering clients to reach their goals through evidence-based approaches.
Our therapy assistance, mentoring, and psychosocial support services are conducted by our allied health and therapy assistants, with plans and supervision provided by our accredited mental health social worker and clinical play therapist. These sessions can involve anything from food preparation and learning life skills to walking and talking through challenges and problem solving or learning how to use dance to relax - we know how to get creative, have fun and support our clients to meet their goals.
We’re different…
As a therapy practice, Side by Side Therapy is unique.
We understand that attending therapy is hard for some people, and we will work hard to make you feel safe. Here are some of the things you can expect from working with the Side by Side team:
We try to have as much fun as we can at work, and we encourage our clients to be open to enjoying therapy and celebrate the wins along the way.
We practice integrative therapy, which is needs-based, so looks and feels different for everyone, and respects clients’ voices, pace, wants and needs.
We focus on strengths, building our clients’ resilience, and collaboratively finding ways to meet unmet needs and teach lagging skills.
We are able to work with multiple funding options, plan and self managed NDIS, Medicare, Open Arms Veteran Affairs, Child Protection, and some health funds.
