What school staff say:

“Amanda has worked with our children for several years, supporting them with their emotions and really providing a safe space for them to talk openly and honestly. It has been wonderful to see how this support has really helped the children to open up outside of their sessions and speak more with other safe adults in their lives. Parents and teachers have observed the difference their sessions with Amanda have had on their overall wellbeing and happiness. We are extremely grateful for the support that Amanda has been able to provide. “

“Amanda’s support for our school has been invaluable. She has supported children with a wide range of needs and has shown flexibility and creativity in finding ways to engage them and establish relationships. We have seen real impact from the sessions in children’s confidence in speaking up and knowing that their voice is important. Amanda has given children a safe space to explore their feelings and communicate them in a positive and empowering way.”

What parents say:

“We’ve seen a real improvement in our daughter’s confidence since starting support. She seems more comfortable in herself and she is beginning to see neurodiversity in a positive way.”

“When we approached Amanda, our youngest son was struggling hugely with feelings of frustration, anger and sadness, which he wasn’t able to explain at that time. Amanda worked with us for twelve sessions, and through her lovely, relaxed and engaging style of therapy, helped him to unpick his difficulties at school, whilst also helping him develop strategies for communicating his needs and emotions in constructive ways. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Amanda to any parent whose child is having emotional difficulties. “
