Therapies
At Creative Therapy, we specialize in providing comprehensive support for children and individuals with diverse needs. Our services include special education support, speech and occupational therapy, behavior therapies, and psychological testing. With over 15 years of experience in Muscat, we are dedicated to empowering individuals to reach their full potential through tailored, evidence-based interventions in a nurturing and inclusive environment.
Consultations
Our consultation services at Creative Therapy provide personalized guidance to support your child’s unique needs and help you navigate their developmental and educational journey with confidence. We begin with an intake process, including a detailed form that assesses your child’s developmental milestones, social interactions, and emotional well-being. Consultations can be conducted in person or online for your convenience, but any necessary observations to better understand your child’s challenges and strengths are conducted in person to ensure accuracy and effectiveness. During the consultation, we listen to your concerns, review the intake information, and collaborate with you to develop clear, actionable recommendations tailored specifically to your child’s growth and success. Our goal is to empower families with practical strategies and solutions that make a meaningful difference in their child’s life.
Assessments
At Creative Therapy, we provide comprehensive psychological testing services carefully designed to meet the needs of individuals across all age groups. For toddlers, we conduct developmental assessments and pre-autism screenings to evaluate early milestones and provide insights for timely interventions. For children and adolescents, we offer a range of assessments, including educational and IQ testing, as well as evaluations for autism, ADHD, dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, and executive functioning, to better understand their learning and cognitive needs. For high school students through adults, our services focus on ADHD, autism, IQ, and executive functioning assessments to support academic, professional, and personal development. Our individualized and professional approach ensures meaningful insights and practical recommendations to foster success and growth at every stage of life.
Special Education Services
Our special education support services offer individualized one-to-one sessions designed to meet the specific needs of children with academic challenges, intellectual disabilities, and developmental disabilities. Each session is carefully tailored to address the child’s unique strengths and areas of difficulty, focusing on skill-building in academics, communication, and social-emotional development. By providing targeted interventions and personalized teaching strategies, we help children overcome barriers to learning, develop independence, and build self-confidence. These sessions take place in a focused and supportive environment where children feel safe, valued, and empowered to reach their full potential.
Occupational Therapy
Our occupational therapy services provide one-to-one support tailored to help children develop essential skills for daily life. These personalized sessions focus on improving fine motor skills, coordination, self-care abilities, and sitting tolerance, while also addressing sensory processing challenges through sensory integration therapy. By creating individualized plans, we help children regulate their sensory responses, build focus, and engage more effectively with their environment. In a supportive and engaging setting, we empower children to develop independence, confidence, and the skills needed for everyday success.
Speech Therapy
Our speech therapy services provide individualized, one-to-one support for children with autism and those experiencing speech delays, delivered exclusively in English by a native English-speaking therapist. These sessions are carefully tailored to meet each child’s unique needs, addressing areas such as speech articulation, language comprehension, and social interaction skills. For children with autism, therapy includes strategies to support non-verbal communication and build foundational social communication abilities. For those with speech delays, we focus on developing clear and effective speech patterns to enhance their ability to express thoughts and needs. Through engaging activities and a nurturing approach, our goal is to empower children to communicate confidently and successfully in their daily lives, fostering independence and stronger connections with others.

Behavior therapy
Our behavior therapy services provide individualized, one-to-one support for children with autism and other developmental challenges. Using evidence-based strategies, we address a range of behaviors, including difficulty with social interaction, emotional regulation, and daily routines. Our sessions focus on teaching positive behaviors, reducing challenging ones, and building essential life skills such as communication, cooperation, and self-regulation. For children with autism, therapy includes strategies to support social engagement and adaptive behavior. Each plan is tailored to the child’s unique needs, ensuring a structured and supportive environment where they can thrive. Our goal is to help children achieve meaningful progress, enhance their independence, and improve their quality of life.
Cognitive Behavior Therapy
Our Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) services are designed for children aged 8 and up, offering a structured, evidence-based approach to address emotional, behavioral, and social challenges. Through one-to-one sessions, we help children recognize and understand the connection between their thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT focuses on developing practical strategies to manage anxiety, depression, stress, and negative behaviors such as aggression, defiance, or avoidance. Tailored to each child’s unique needs, these sessions empower them to build healthier coping mechanisms, improve emotional regulation, and foster resilience in a supportive and nurturing environment.
Play Therapy
Our play therapy services are tailored to help children, including those with autism, develop essential emotional, social, and coping skills through the power of play. For children on the autism spectrum, therapy focuses on teaching appropriate play skills, fostering social interaction, and encouraging creativity. In one-to-one sessions, we use guided activities such as role-playing, structured games, and interactive storytelling to help children express emotions, build self-esteem, and improve communication. Play therapy also supports children dealing with anxiety, trauma, or behavioral challenges. Each session is personalized to the child’s needs, providing a safe and nurturing environment where they can grow, learn, and thrive.
Sitting
Sitting tolerance training focuses on helping children develop the ability to remain seated and engaged during tasks or activities. This skill is especially important for children with challenges such as autism, ADHD, or sensory processing difficulties, who may find it hard to stay seated for extended periods. Through structured and individualized sessions, sitting tolerance training gradually builds a child’s ability to sit calmly, focus on tasks, and participate in daily routines such as mealtime, classroom activities, or therapy sessions. By using positive reinforcement and engaging techniques, we help children increase their sitting duration, improve attention, and develop self-regulation skills, fostering their ability to succeed in various settings.
