About Our Services
eQuiPT Therapy Services is an Adoption & Special Guardian Support Service, with the majority of our work being funded by the Adoption Special Guardian Support Fund.
But we also provide our services directly to families self funding, schools, local authorities and some funded support through our Community Interest Company where funds are available. These funds are raised through fundraising events, sponsorship and funding bids. We believe strongly that we have a duty to help others where we can, as we are in a position to do so, with the skills required.
We provide a service to children aged between 3 and 18 years old and their families by providing creative therapies to emotionally vulnerable children and adults on account of their psychological, emotional, or social disabilities and circumstances.
We provide training for adults in families, social care, therapeutic and education settings to develop and enhance therapeutic skills for the support and development of emotionally vulnerable children and adults on account of their psychological, emotional, or social disabilities and circumstances; and to liaise closely with other voluntary and statutory agencies also concerned with the assistance of persons in need in connection with any of the above. We can provide our training in person at venues and have a training platform that can be accessed for those who find attending training in person difficult. We particularly find this is helpful for families who have young children.
Therapy for children and adolescents should be enjoyable and age appropriate.
That is why at eQuiPT we use play and art as the therapeutic medium.
"Birds fly, fish swim and children play."
