Nurseries, Schools & Authorities
I work with a range of settings and local authorities both face to face and virtually to help support the children and young people in the care. Please explore this page to see the range of services I offer.
Observation
(Approx. 30 minutes) to observe the child/young person in-person or virtually
Consultation
(Approx. 1-1½ hours) to meet with staff and parents/carers to explore their concerns, gather a good understanding of the child’s life experiences, clarify what their main hopes are from my involvement and help form psychological perspectives.
Individual sessions with children/young people
I am flexible and varied in my approach to suit the child/young person’s needs and age and stage of development. I will discuss in advance what the session will entail (e.g. standardised or dynamic assessment, activities to gain their views, assess their emotional needs etc).
Consultation Record/psychological report
This will be a written summary that explains what was found during the assessment, gives a psychological understanding of the child/young person’s needs, and includes helpful recommendations to support them at school and home.
Staff drop-in sessions
Approx. 50 minute 1:1 consultations where staff can seek psychological support or advice regarding student needs or work-related matters.
School training sessions
On topics to implement whole school approaches or approaches to support individual children.
Staff coaching to help implement strategies
Involves visiting setting to model strategies/approaches and interventions and discuss any challenges.
Staff supervision
Involves me leading a supportive and reflective space with school staff to help reflect on their work, explore challenges, manage the emotional demands of the role, and develop strategies for support. The focus is on wellbeing, insight, and professional growth.
Follow up sessions (following individual work with a child)
e.g. review meetings, further observations, professional meetings, virtual telephone meetings/discussions with external agencies, professionals, staff or parents/carers (e.g. to help implement strategies in SEN support plans).
Schools can purchase a minimum of 1 day up to a maximum of 20 days per academic year. There are reduced rates available for schools purchasing packages of 3, 5, 10 or 20 days. Please contact me for further information regarding price rates.
