Counseling

Counseling

At CDTC, patients, parents, caretakers and therapists work together in order to continuously share their knowledge and insights. From the very beginning, during the intake anamnesis talk, they will get the opportunity to meet the  therapist and to extensively discuss the therapeutic approach, goals and expectations.

The relationship with the therapist will deepen on a daily basis as the program advances. There will be an evaluation meeting after each of the therapeutic sessions, with a great many discussions on the dynamics of the therapy, the patient’s progress and the caregiver’s or family’s role in the continuation of the rehabilitation process once you return home.

In many cases, the expertise of more than one therapist may be necessary. Perhaps the patient requires the work of a physical therapist but also seeks the advice of a speech therapist as well? Or perhaps other members of the family require the support of our in-house psychologist to discuss issues like sibling problems, sleeping disorders, partnership conflicts or anything thing else? Ample opportunities will be made available to you to take advantage of all of the professional expertise and resources that the CDTC has to offer. Our entire team is there for you.
