Are you open to finding accepting approaches to the uncommon and focusing on what makes a difference in everyday life?

The Role of Psychologist The foundation of our work is meeting with children, adolescents, and adults who come to us based on their individual habilitation needs. Our starting point is the equal worth of all people. We build our operations through meaningful encounters. Everything leads to our vision: A good life in an attractive region for everyone. Your Future Workplace Habilitation Center works with people with some form of functional impairment. Our clear starting point is that functional impairment is not a barrier within the individual but a barrier for the individual. We serve people who have • intellectual disability • permanent motor disability that is congenital or acquired during childhood, such as cerebral palsy, spina bifida, or muscular dystrophy • neuropsychiatric disability combined with intellectual disability • acquired brain injury with permanent cognitive impairment equivalent to intellectual disability • significant vision impairment, blindness, or deafblindness • deafness, hearing impairment, deafblindness, sound sensitivity, tinnitus, or other hearing-related disabilities. The perspective is always medical, educational, psychological, social, and technical. This makes family members an important collaborator both regarding interventions and working methods.
