Why people come

When something doesn't feel right.

Parents usually know when something has changed. It might be at school, at home or with friends. A specialist assessment helps explain what's going on and what will help, and gives you strategies you can use day to day.

  • Worry, fears or school refusal
  • Trouble concentrating or sitting still
  • Big emotions, tantrums or aggression
  • Differences in social communication
  • Changes after a frightening event
  • Fussy or restricted eating
