Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Consultation sessions (60 minutes) offer a deeper dive approach to exploring the needs behind a specific concern. These are perfect for when you feel lost or like you don’t understand why a behaviour is happening. The other important part is that because consultation sessions look at the reasons behind a behaviour (formulation), all strategies that are recommended to you are completely tailored to the needs of you and your family. This means they are perfect for those who don’t have the time or energy to trial lots of strategies.
Consultations also offer a written summary of the session, with a brief psychological formulation and recommendations, many parents find that this can be useful for sharing with school or other professionals (n.b. these are not diagnostic reports). Schools can find these sessions are useful for not just benefitting one child but increasing access to learning in all students.
Sessions with Lucy and Sarah are collaborative, compassionate, validating and grounded in a neuroaffirmative approach.
Ongoing sessions are:
• £150 per session
• focused on continued support, reflection, and problem-solving
• flexible and parent-led

Neurodiversity refers to the different ways in which all human brains work. It is expected that our brains are different and unique. While our brain is developing, it is also influenced by our genetic factors and our environments. In the same way that we see wonderful diversity in other parts of life, there is much natural diversity in the human brain and mind. Being autistic, ADHD, AuDHD, Dyslexic, having a learning disability are all examples of brain and processing differences that a person is born with. Some people like to call this brain and processing difference, neurodivergence (being neurodivergent is a natural part of the neurodiversity of humans).
Being neurodivergent can be something to be celebrated, which is why we prefer the use of neuroaffirmative terminology, and neuroaffirmative practice fundamentally supports and celebrates difference.
Neuroaffirmative practice seeks to avoid using words which are negative, pejorative or ‘disordered’. This does not mean that being neuroaffirmative ignores challenges; it recognises the very real struggles, needs or difficulties that people can experience. Instead, it is about having a wider understanding of a person’s strengths as well as struggles, in order to help people to thrive and be at their best, especially when reasonable adjustments are made and the environment is well suited to helping a person be at their best and thrive.
See our Resources section for more info.
Being neuroaffirmative also means seeking to use terminology that is more acceptable to the community we are seeking to support. Whilst terminology is always changing as are peoples’ personal preferences, we prefer the use of terms such as "autistic person", rather than "person with autism", as this is the terminology most commonly preferred by autistic people. It is important to us to find out how an individual person identifies themselves, so please do highlight to us what your child’s personal preference is.
Our work focuses on supporting you as a parent or carer, helping you understand your child’s needs and behaviours, and guiding you in how to respond effectively, with or without a diagnosis.
If you are seeking diagnosis, we can help you navigate the process, understand what to expect, and provide support in the meantime. We can also guide you in what to look for to ensure the provider /assessor is appropriately qualified to conduct the assessments.
