How OICBT Helps With Intellectual Disability

Intellectual disabilities involve differences in cognitive functioning and adaptive skills that may affect learning, communication, independence and daily living. OICBT provides evidence-based support for intellectual disability through care that is matched to your needs, goals and preferences. The clinic uses a personalized intake process to recommend a strong service fit, and OICBT clinician profiles identify Disorders of Intellectual Development and neurodevelopmental concerns as relevant areas of focus. Depending on fit, care may include evidence-based assessment, diagnosis and intervention services where listed by clinician profiles.

  • Care is collaborative, client-centred and guided by research-informed recommendations.
  • Treatment may draw on CBT, ACT, DBT, mindfulness-based care, attachment-based therapy and collaborative problem solving.
  • Goals may include symptom relief, practical skills, resilience, relationships, daily functioning and values-based action.
