Not many people enjoy getting a needle, but for some, the thought and experience can be so distressing that they avoid it completely. Due to significant anxiety, immunisations are missed, procedures are unable to be performed, or needles can only be administered when there is restraint.
Our caring and trained team of psychologists and occupational therapists have experience working with clients of all ages and presentations including Autism Spectrum Disorder, sensory processing issues (e.g. sensitivities to touch, smell, etc). We have worked with many clients with this phobia and have had great success.
