Telephone consultations usually last around half an hour and can occur outside of typical working hours upon request. Contact details available here.

Initial assessments last up to 90 minutes, and the format can be flexible to suit the client’s needs. 

These sessions include formal and informal assessment, a case history and discussion with the client’s supporters (such as parents or staff) as appropriate. 

After the assessment session, I produce your written summary or full report, which can be shared with schools, respite services or other organisations as you see fit.

Therapy sessions last up to an hour and typically include work with the client and discussion with his/her supporters.

Guidance and activities will be provided to enable clients (and supporters) to practise their skills between therapy sessions.

Reports can be written during therapy programmes, upon request.

It is advisable for clients to request a report when they cease therapy sessions and/or transition to a new therapist.

At you request, I can liaise with other professionals through formal correspondence and meetings. 

Costs are calculated to the nearest 15 minutes.
