Why is Youthrive different from the others?
Who we are
Youthrive is a social enterprise with the purpose of improving the lives of as many kids and young people as possible. Through evidence based therapy we empower families and equip kids and young people with the skills they need to thrive.
Our service creates a stable and growing source of revenue for Act for Kids, to support their work of supporting children and families who have experienced or are at risk of harm..
How we work
Youthrive’s unique integrated therapy model means that your child will benefit from a whole and cohesive treatment plan. Our plans cater for the cognitive, behavioural and emotional difficulties your child may be facing.
Collaborative
Youthrive’s integrated therapy team of psychologists, speech pathologists, and occupational therapists work together to develop a tailored plan for children and their families. Children benefit from integrated therapy as therapists can analyse the child’s needs as a whole. This means we aren’t just focus on one specific issue or outcome.
Convenient
Our unique model allows busy parents to access therapy services they need to benefit their child’s development. Unlike clinics which may only provide one form of therapy, we offer a complete array of services to provide a collaborative service. This makes your life easier and lowers your child’s anxiety as they become comfortable in one environment.
Connected
Therapy doesn’t end when you leave the clinic. We work with the people in your child’s life to ensure what they are learning in therapy is being applied to their everyday lives. Our team works alongside medical practitioners, teachers, and parents to support children’s learning and development.
Fees and Funding Programs
Youthrive is a fee-paying service, however some Medicare and private health insurance rebates may be available.
Our Services
We provide three types of therapy, which work together to provide holistic multi-disciplinary support.
Impact
Youthrive provides three types of therapy – psychology, speech pathology, and occupational therapy for kids and young people. Our integrated model means children and young people receive a high quality of professional support in one location without the stress and cost of travelling to separate service providers. A child may need one service, or a combination of the three therapies. But each plan is tailored to ensure all the child and families therapy needs are met. We don’t expect, or need, kids to fit precisely into “classifications” or “boxes” – we assess their individual needs and develop a support plan to help them achieve their goals.
