My Approach:
I offer a bespoke service. After an initial assessment I will recommend an approach and pathway to change. I work with children or parents 1-1, family groups and multiple family members 1-1. I will coach parents and set a tailored programme for success.
I have a proven track record of changing the lives of families and young people in schools, through parenting courses, by child and family therapy and with Women's Aid. I have worked with schools, families and young people since 1996.
