Counseling and Therapy at Parkaire
Parkaire is known for its researched-based, integrated therapeutic, and neurological expertise. Our passion and reputation are centered in relationship therapy with our diverse clients and families.

We take pride in working collaboratively as a team within Parkaire and with selected external mental and healthcare practitioners.
Parkaire Consultants offers up to date therapeutic programs for children, adolescents, and adults who have been diagnosed with neurological disorders. These include:
- ADHD
- OCD
- Depression
- Bipolar Disorder
- High Functioning Autism
- Tourette Syndrome
- Language Impairments
- Visual-Sensory-Motor Dysfunction
- Learning Disabilities including Dyslexia
- Executive Dysfunction
- Memory Disorders

- Social Communication Disorder
Using current research on transforming the function of these disorders and their impact on individuals, Parkaire therapists are trained in specific Cognitive Behavioral Therapies (CBT) for differing disorders such as:
- Exposure Response Prevention Therapy (ERPT) for OCD
- Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention (C-BIT) for Tourette Syndrome
General Cognitive Behavioral Therapies often are not specific enough for many disorders to treat many disorders. Parkaire therapists also specialize in:
- Addiction
- Brainspotting therapy for trauma
- Eating disorders
- Family therapy
- Behavioral difficulties
- Techniques for self-regulation
- Medical education
- Floor time for treating Autism
- Sports therapy
Treating most of the disorders we work with requires cognitive restructuring. It is very important to separate the character of the client from their medical symptoms. At Parkaire we are able to take complex neurological disorders and help clients of all ages to understand and learn how to offset the negative impact of these disorders.
There are many effective techniques in addition to cognitive therapies. A single technique used in therapy may not be appropriate for an individual client at Parkaire. A therapist may use. One tool or strategy does not often fit a client coming into Parkaire. A therapist may use:
- literature therapy
- art therapy
- sports therapy
- behavior therapy
- cognitive play therapy
- social learning curriculums
- self-regulation strategies
- perspective taking
- educational therapy
- transition skill development toward being an independent adult
Parkaire’s goal is for every client to learn to understand and care about themselves, to have good family relationships and friendships, to become independent, and to be successful.
