Our team provides comprehensive assessments for Selective Mutism, OCD, ASD, ADHD and IQ testing. Testing includes interviews with the child and parents, standardized tests, and observations to helps identify specific challenges, strengths, and developmental needs.

We offer a holistic, adaptive approach that prioritizes the child's unique context. By combining various therapeutic techniques and involving the family, Brave's clinicians foster a supportive environment that promotes healing and growth.

Group therapy offers a dynamic, interactive environment where children can explore their emotions, build social skills, and develop resilience. By learning from each other and practicing new skills together, children can experience significant growth and healing in a supportive peer setting.

Intensive exposure therapy for children is a therapeutic approach designed to help young individuals confront and gradually reduce their anxiety and fears in a safe and supportive environment. This therapy involves structured, repeated exposure to specific feared situations or stimuli, allowing children to learn coping strategies and build resilience.

Sessions are tailored to the child’s specific needs and can include a variety of techniques, such as role-playing, guided imagery, and real-world exposure tasks. Brave's clinical team works closely with the child and their family, ensuring that the pace of exposure is appropriate and that positive reinforcement is provided throughout the process.

The goal of intensive exposure therapy is to empower children to face their fears, enhance their emotional regulation skills, and ultimately improve their overall well-being. This approach is the gold standard for treatment of selective mutism, phobias, OCD, and related anxiety disorders. Brave clinicians are passionate about helping children regain confidence and engage more fully in everyday life.

Sessions can vary in length and recommendations will be made upon completion of your child's intake assessment. Our clinicians offer multi-hour and multi-day individualized treatment within our clinic and community settings.

Brave Camp is a transformative program designed to support young individuals facing anxiety and phobias in an "in-vivo, in situ" therapeutic setting. This immersive camp experience combines treatment techniques with fun, engaging activities, enabling children to confront their fears in a safe and supportive environment.

Throughout the camp, trained camp counselors guide participants through structured exposure exercises tailored to their individual needs. Each day is carefully planned to gradually introduce children to their fears while promoting camaraderie and resilience among peers.

In addition to exposure activities, the camp emphasizes skill-building through workshops on coping strategies, mindfulness, and emotional regulation. Children learn to express their feelings and support one another, fostering a sense of community and understanding.

Parents are kept informed through regular updates and are encouraged to participate in workshops, enhancing their ability to support their child's journey. The camp culminates in a celebration where children showcase their achievements, reinforcing their newfound confidence and skills.

Brave Explorers Camp is a unique opportunity for children to face their fears, build lasting friendships, and learn practical tools to manage anxiety in their daily lives.
