Children and Preteens
TAS Psychology is dedicated to providing holistic support to children and their families, addressing both individual needs and family dynamics to foster positive outcomes and overall well-being. Our approach integrates play-based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) strategies, tailored specifically to address childhood mental health concerns such as anxiety, behavioural challenges, and emotional dysregulation.
Through engaging and developmentally appropriate activities, we help children build coping skills, enhance emotional resilience and cultivate positive behavioural patterns. By incorporating play into therapy sessions, we create a safe and comfortable environment where children can express themselves freely and explore effective ways to manage their emotions and behaviours.
In addition to our play-based CBT services, we offer comprehensive assessment, diagnosis, and support for symptoms related to Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Working closely with families, educators and stakeholders, we provide thorough evaluations, personalised treatment plans and ongoing support to ensure that children receive the support they need to thrive.
At TAS Psychology, we believe in empowering children and families to overcome challenges, build resilience, and lead fulfilling lives. Contact us today to learn more about our services and how we can support your child's mental health and development journey.

- Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD): GAD is a common mental health condition among adults characterised by excessive and persistent worry or anxiety about various aspects of life, such as work, health, relationships and everyday situations. Individuals with GAD often experience heightened levels of tension, nervousness and apprehension, even when there is no apparent reason.
- Stress Management: Stress is a common experience in adulthood and can arise from various sources, including work, relationships, financial pressures and major life changes. While some level of stress is normal, chronic or excessive stress can have significant impacts on mental and physical health.
- Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD): In adults, ADHD symptoms can manifest in various areas of life, including work, relationships and personal responsibilities. Adults with ADHD may struggle with time management, maintaining relationships and achieving their full potential in their careers.
- Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD): It is common for individuals with ASD to go undiagnosed until adulthood, particularly those with milder symptoms or who have developed coping mechanisms to conceal their difficulties. However, with increased awareness, improved diagnostic tools and access to specialised services, more adults are now being identified and receiving support for ASD later in life.
- Depression: Adult depression is a prevalent mental health condition characterised by persistent feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and a loss of interest or pleasure in activities. Symptoms may include thoughts of death or suicide. Depression can significantly impact daily functioning, relationships and overall quality of life. However, with appropriate support and treatment, it's possible to manage depression and improve well-being.
