What We do

How does Psychotherapy & Counselling help?

Therapy provides individuals with the necessary tools to deal with their personal problems and emotional irregularities that they have otherwise been unable to deal with themselves. All therapeutic services provide a safe and calm environment, wherein individuals can discuss their thoughts and feelings with a trained professional; who, in turn, can provide constructive feedback and ask questions to help guide the individual to the root of their problems.

Expressive Therapies add to the standard therapeutic practices through the medium of Art Therapy (at times incorporating Play, Movement and Music when appropriate). Individuals are able to express themselves on a much deeper level, using expressive mediums in treatment and in assessment to discover parts of themselves that they may lack the ability to vocalize. Through ATIC’s unique approach, thoughts and feelings are expressed far more freely and openly as the process of vocalizing some emotions can have a strong negative impact on the participant. Art, however, gives them the ability to fully express themselves without the need for words.

What Is Assessment?

Assessments are a series of sessions in which one of our therapists will assess the specific issues faced by the individual. All assessments will start with an initial consultation before it can be determined whether specific assessment tools are required.

They will typically consist of diagnostic interviews, behavioral observations and the use of standardized psychometric instruments. A feedback session will then be arranged to review the results.

ATIC is the only center in UAE with qualified therapists specialized in a form of psychotherapy best suited for early childhood, children and adolescents, verbal and non-verbal; Art Psychotherapy. We integrate Play Therapy for ages up to 12 years. These forms of therapy have been and still are at the forefront of Western intervention for the last 70 years and deemed a non-threatening method in managing significant clinical challenges as well as maintaining overall emotional wellbeing.
