Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
The main questions we look to answer are:
1. Do the children/teens tolerate the therapy and feel that it is helpful?
2. Do the parents/ families feel the therapy helps and is easy to commit to?
3. Do the children/teens complete all their therapy sessions and assessments as planned?
The participants will trial the therapy for 30 hours over 6 weeks and will perform assessments before and after to see if they meet their goals. They will also be interviewed to see how they felt about the therapy when they finish.
