Overview
Overview:
Bright Spark Creatives offers group therapy and one-on-one support for children with additional needs, providing a nurturing space where every child can develop confidence, social skills, and independence. Sessions are designed to build self-regulation, communication, and positive peer interactions in a structured but playful environment. With small group sizes and a consistent routine, children are supported in ways that encourage cooperation, participation, and growth, while parents and caregivers are kept informed and involved throughout the process.
Don't compare your child to others.
There's no comparison between the sun & the moon.
They shine when it's their time.

Programs:
All therapy services are carefully tailored to meet the individual goals of each child. Sarah designs group therapy programs that embed strategies recommended by each individual child's team of allied health professionals, while also considering the child’s personal needs, learning style, and family context. This approach ensures sessions are meaningful and relevant, whether focused on building social communication, managing transitions, or preparing for school environments. The small group setting allows children to practice skills in real-time with peers, creating a natural and supportive pathway for growth.
You Are Different, Not Less.
Programs
One-on-One Support
One on One support can be delivered in a play based setting, either at your child's home, school, kindergarten or daycare. This approach enables children to develop the skills required to navigate through spontaneous circumstances in every day scenarios as they arise.
Group Therapy
Group Therapy can be tailor made to be delivered to therapists, schools or businesses upon request. Alternatively children can join one of Bright Sparks existing services.
Please note that spaces are strictly limited, please contact Sarah for further details.
