Is this for my child?
- Frequent meltdowns
- Aggression, hitting, biting, or throwing
- Transition difficulty
- Sensory overload or communication frustration
How long does it take?
- Families usually review behaviour and regulation goals over 12-18 weeks.
Is it safe?
- DARC does not punish meltdowns. We look for the need underneath and teach safer ways to communicate and recover.
How much will it cost?
- Fees are shared after assessment. Dr. Aaditya consultation is ₹3,000 when booked with him.

Common questions
How much does therapy cost at DARC?+
Fees depend on the assessment, therapy frequency, and the support plan. We explain the recommended plan and cost clearly before parents commit.
Is the therapy safe for my child?+
Sessions are child-friendly and supervised by trained therapists. Non-invasive supports are recommended only when suitable and never presented as a standalone cure.
How quickly will we see progress?+
Some families notice early changes within weeks, while deeper developmental goals take longer. Progress depends on the child's profile, consistency, and home practice.
