SEND Consultancy for families and individuals

Sometimes you have to live it to understand it. ❤️

Are you a parent of a neurodivergent and or disabled child who would like support to navigate a particular challenge in your journey as a family? Are you coming to terms with your own late diagnosis as a parent simultaneously or as a single person?

Perhaps you are experiencing difficulties with the education system that you need help to navigate. Or you would like to bring more harmony to the home environment, gaining help with your parenting style, communication with your child or routine setting, for example. Perhaps you are beginning a home education journey or EOTAS (education other than at school). Or perhaps your child is going through the process of getting a diagnosis and you need support to navigate and come to terms with this new world you find yourself in and the SEND system in general. 

Having been through all of this myself personally and supported others professionally in my consultancy with families and also as a SENDCO, I can work to support you to navigate this period and what for many can feel like new unfamiliar territory at first. I work in a warm and understanding way, to help as much as I can within my role to empower, support, advocate, educate and enable you to move forward positively.

I know the education and life journey for children can be wonderful, amazing, and magical, and for some, at times, it can also feel frustrating, pressured, exhausting, overwhelming and confusing. As neurodivergent families we can often feel legitimately misunderstood and isolated. It would be my pleasure to help you on your journey to a more harmonious place.
