So how does it all work?
Getting to know you
The first thing we'll do is have a chat. I need to learn more about you and your circumstances. And equally, you need to learn more about me to see if there is a fit. There is no charge for this initial conversation.
Then if you want to proceed we'll book in an initial session.
You can always determine how many sessions you want and how frequently. With most of the people I work with, I tend to see them every week or every other week.
What services do I offer?
I will always be as flexible as I can be to accommodate people who really need to see me. The way that it works best is for clients to visit my garden counselling room and for me to see them face to face on a regular basis.
However I can be flexible, for example operating over the phone or video conference. Or visiting schools to either observe young people or to speak to teachers.

Additional services
Sometimes I am asked to attend school meetings and also manage and support written correspondence for sensitive topics (e.g. appeals or applications).
I am always happy to support these. Costs will depend on what is required.
Word of mouth
Most of the people who approach me for help have been recommended by someone that I'm already working with. There is no better way.
If you would like to hear what people have said about the services I offer, please check out the Testimonials page.
And a number of the people I am helping or have helped have also offered to act as a reference, so if you'd like to speak to them I can introduce you.
