The session will be held on Zoom or by phone depending on your preference. It will take around 30 minutes. I will ask you questions about your child and the parenting challenges that you are experiencing. I will explain how I work and how I can support you and you will have opportunity to ask any quesions. If you are a two parent household it is best if both parents are able to attend the consultation session.

I work with families all over the UK online but if you are in the Newcastle area then I am able to work face-to-face either at my office in Gosforth or in your home, dependent on distance. I am happy to work with clients in different time zones assuming we can agree a mutual convenient time.

This will be assessed during the initial phone call. It is individual to each family and their needs. As a rough guide it would be difficult to achieve a sustained change in less than 3 sessions. Parents may continue to work with me for many months and some parents may access support on an occasional basis for longer time periods.

Again this depends on the needs of the family and their preferences. Most parents work with me weekly or fortnightly.

The cost of sessions if £70 per one hour session. As part of the service I will also provide you with an email summary including any reflections, useful links and next steps.
