is to improve the lives of Neurodivergent* children, young people and their families through our 3 pillars of support.
Neurodiversity affirming groups designed and delivered to foster connection, creativity and fun, including Mindful Crafts, Yoga and Woodland Warriors Outdoor Activity sessions.
Group sessions, 1 to 1 support via phone/email, to help families feel informed, understood and in a better position to advocate for their child. Parent wellbeing sessions to help you cope with stress, meet other parents and have some time to yourself.
Practical, friendly workshops for parents, carers, and professionals covering neurodivergence, everyday strategies and reasonable adjustments.
We are really pleased to share that MyOTAS is now working in partnership with Life Perspective Counselling, a counselling service based in Wickford, to improve access to mental health support for our community.
Through this partnership, we are able to offer referrals for parent/carers and young people aged 11+ to access counselling at a significantly reduced rate.
Sessions will be delivered by counsellors at the final stage of their professional training, who are supported and overseen in line with the BACP Ethical Framework, ensuring safe and high-quality support.
This is a fantastic opportunity for those who may otherwise find accessing counselling difficult, and we are proud to be working alongside Life Perspective to help make support more accessible.
Sessions are available both online and in-person (Wickford)
Referrals must be made through MyOTAS - please email info@MyOTAS.org for further information.
A few places left on our FREE on-line EHCP Workshop on Wednesday. Link to book in bio.
