Our offer

We offer a range of evidence-based approaches are used to inform best practices in service intervention and delivery, including adhering to the European Society For Trauma and Dissociation (ESTD) Guidelines for working with trauma and dissociation and ESTD with Children and Young People who have experienced trauma.

The British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) is the UK’s largest counselling and Psychotherapy governing body, and Broad Horizons also follows BACP Guidelines for working with trauma, which Broad Horizons director contributes to as part of the BACP Expert Steering Group for working with trauma and dissociation. Another key evidence-based guideline for intervention that Broad Horizons adheres to is the NICE Guidelines (National Institute for Clinical Excellence).

It is recognised that working with the team around the family is vital. One of Broad Horizons' core principles in how we practice and advertise as a service is that we are ‘more than 50 minutes in a room.’ Based on evidence-based best practice, all our therapeutic interventions include multi-agency liaison time.

Below we have listed just some of the therapies we offer. We ensure each individual who receives therapeutic intervention from Broad Horizons experiences a bespoke and individual service to meet their needs.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

CBT is a talking therapy that helps people manage problems by changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. It’s based on the idea that how we think affects how we feel and act. By identifying and challenging negative patterns, CBT helps people cope better with issues like anxiety, depression, and stress.

Play Therapy

Play Therapy is a therapeutic approach that helps children express their feelings, thoughts, and experiences through play. It’s based on the idea that play is a natural way for children to communicate. With the support of a trained therapist, children can explore emotions, develop coping skills, and work through difficult experiences in a safe and supportive space.

Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy (DDP)

DDP is a therapy designed to help children who have experienced trauma, attachment difficulties, or early developmental challenges. It involves both the child and their caregiver, using safe, open, and accepting conversations to build trust and strengthen relationships. DDP helps children feel more secure and supported, improving emotional regulation and connection.

Theraplay

Theraplay is a play-based therapy that focuses on building strong, healthy relationships between children and their caregivers. Using fun, structured activities, it helps develop trust, emotional connection, and self-esteem. Theraplay is especially helpful for children with attachment difficulties, trauma, or behavioural challenges, creating a sense of safety and joy in relationships.

Adult Psychotherapy

Adult therapy supports individuals in understanding their thoughts, emotions, and behaviours to improve wellbeing and daily functioning. It offers a safe space to explore past experiences, current challenges, and personal goals. Through talking therapies like CBT or person-centred approaches, adults can build coping strategies, boost self-awareness, and make positive changes in their lives.

Wellbeing supervision for schools and organisations offers structured support for individuals or teams to reflect on their work, manage stress, and build resilience. It provides a safe, confidential space to explore challenges, strengthen team dynamics, and promote emotional wellbeing.
