Navigating this site

Our "About us" & "Our Team" pages will tell you about us, but don't forget that we'd love to meet you in person so we can learn about you!

On our "Services" page, you'll find information about our approach, specialisations, services, assessments, treatments, programmes, etc. Just remember that we can only fit so much on the page! We have expanded on this in our "Specialisations" pages

In our "Find Out About" page. We've tried to translate all those technical words into "just plain English". We really hope they will be useful to you, and if you want us to add any other terms, please just let us know! We have also designed a "Solution finder" to help you decide which solutions may best fit your specific needs, but we will explore this more thoroughly with you when we meet you in person.

"Our Heroes" come straight from our heart! This page is dedicated to all the amazing kids we've been honoured to work with who have shown so much courage and determination. It's just a pity we can't fit everyone on the page!

"Inspirations" is a page filled with useful information that we have written with our families in mind. We hope that these articles give you inspiration to cope with whatever your challenges are and we are open to any new inspirations, either those you have, or those you need.

And of course we appreciate your comments and suggestions, you can make these in our "Contacts" page. This site was designed to meet your needs, so please let us know how we can improve it.
