How it works
Initial Evaluation:
The process starts with a thorough evaluation of each participant. By understanding individual strengths, obstacles, and interests, our therapists can craft a customised therapy plan to address specific needs.
Goal Development:
From the initial assessment, our team establishes clear therapy objectives. These goals might focus on improving problem-solving skills, enhancing creativity, or fostering communication capabilities.
Session Configuration:
Based on the therapeutic objectives and personal preferences, participants may be advised to join individual sessions, group activities, or a combination of both.
Role Assignment & Challenges:
In the Minecraft world, participants may assume roles such as builders, miners, or adventurers. They could be tasked with constructing buildings, solving puzzles, or working on collaborative ventures. Roles and challenges are varied to provide a rich array of experiences and learning opportunities.
Interactive Therapy Sessions:
Whether navigating solo adventures or team endeavors, our therapists are constantly involved. They facilitate interactions, introduce game-based challenges, and ensure that each session meets the set therapeutic goals.

Every action taken and challenge overcome provides insights into each participant’s development. Our therapists closely monitor, record, and assess this progress throughout the therapy.
Review and Adjustment:
Regular reviews offer a chance to reflect on achievements and hurdles. In group sessions, team dynamics and collective accomplishments are also discussed. Feedback from these sessions informs the adjustments and enhancements made to future interactions.
