Stress is the key

We have become increasingly aware of the role that stress plays for the individual with special educational needs and autism, their experience of their symptoms and for their government, family and carers. We have therefore developed a range of services which specifically acknowledge the management of stress and the development of coping skills as an essential part of the therapeutic process.
