The Cluas Therapeutic Programme
We offer home-based therapeutic programmes to support children and their families with developmental delays or difficulties.
We believe in a collaborative approach, working closely with you to create an individualised plan that best meets your child’s unique needs and fosters their growth and development.
Our cutting-edge technology and innovative approach to Sound Therapy ensure that our programmes are at the forefront of therapeutic interventions.
So you can feel confident that your child receives the highest quality treatment available. Ronan is a level 4 Tomatis Consultant, and we use the most modern and up-to-date therapeutic equipment available.
The beauty of our programmes is that your child can participate from the comfort and convenience of their own environment. This home-based approach allows us to design personalised interventions that effectively address developmental difficulties, promoting growth and progress in a familiar and nurturing setting.
Our Centre in Harold‘s Cross
While our programmes primarily take place in the comfort of your own home, we also have a dedicated testing and consulting centre located in Harold’s Cross, Dublin.
This centre serves as a space where we can meet with parents and conduct essential assessments, including listening tests, auditory tests, and other evaluations that help us build a comprehensive listening profile for each individual.
Additionally, our playroom within the centre is fully equipped with age-appropriate toys, creating an engaging and supportive environment during consultations.

The meaning behind our name
The name “Cluas,” derived from the Irish word for “ear,” carries a special meaning for us.
The logo symbolises the importance of our ears for development. We believe listening plays a crucial role in understanding and addressing developmental difficulties.
By embracing the name “Cluas,” we emphasise our commitment to honing our expertise in sound-based interventions and therapies. Just as the ear captures and processes sound, we strive to create a supportive environment where we listen attentively to the needs of each individual.
Through our innovative, customised programmes, we help individuals thrive, communicate effectively, and reach their full potential.
